COURTESY POST Are you lookin' for a good, loyal buddy? Sweet and affectionate? A very good dog? A dog to do LOTS of things with such as running, hiking, agility training, etc.? Obedience training would be great for the both of us too. Super way for us to bond. I am full of energy so not a dog just to lie around the yard or house 24/7. I received at my foster home, two 30-minute walks a day + a daily one-mile run. Are you able to commit to daily exercise with me? Now, that doesn't mean I don't enjoy resting. My former foster mom thinks I'm so dang cute and hilarious sleeping. Check my pictures out and there is one of me propping up my head on the legs of a wooden chair while I'm fast asleep! I love my people. I enjoy the outdoors in the fenced back yard if my people are with me and I play with my ball and/or stay on squirrel patrol. Currently, I do have a shy/fearful nature and need a bit of time to warm up to new people. My former foster mom found that I warm up to new people much quicker if the people act as treat dispensers and ignore me until I approach them. It only takes 5 minutes (that is not all that long). Then all is good with me. If a new person focuses on me and pushes themselves on me - it will take longer than 5 minutes. Who likes pushy people??? So, when we meet, make sure you have lots of treats and wait for me to make the first move. I like dogs that are well socialized in play. I don't like grumpy dogs - you know the type - they show their teeth, growl or lunge at me. Nope - not a fan of grumpy dogs. But, a huge fan of dogs that play nicely. See my pics. There is a picture of Daisy (available for adoption too) and me resting after a walk together. I like treats but guess what I really love more than treats? Sweet lovin' all over my 40 pounds body. Seriously, just give me a good 5 minutes of attention when you arrive home and I'll be satisfied. Belly rubs are the best and I'll make it easy for you by rolling over to expose my belly. I would prefer a home that is low traffic because of my shy/fearful nature. I'm not into meeting a whole bunch of new people daily. That could get stressful. That is why I wouldn't do well living in an apartment (way too much activity) and my home needs to have kids 16 and older. Younger kids would not understand my need of 'warm up' time. But, hey - once I'm comfortable - I'm an active, playful boy. I promise you we will have lots of fun together. You + me = Harmony Read what my former foster mom (FFM) said about me, 'Silly, happy, high energy Bryan is taking selfies, chasing squirrels, hanging out being a very good boy waiting on his forever home. I love this boy.' Ahhhhhh --- I love her too. Here are some highlights about me: House trained, Kennel trained, Enjoy my squeaky toys and Nylabones, LOVE my special ball, Enjoy the fenced backyard (including chasing squirrels out of MY backyard) Eagerly jump in the car. Good leash walker, Know commands: sit, down, stay, wait, leave it, come PLUS can jump through hoops. I was even taught a hoop trick Come to the shelter and let's meet!
