Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

He was dropped at our house last summer as a puppy. He was very fearful, it took months to be able to even pet him. We have worked for over a year and he still is very timid but has greatly improved. He chases chickens and likes to roam so he needs a fenced enclosure. He is a sweet little guy, but we just can't get any further with him. We think the right person could bring him around to be a confident and happy dog.
