We found him abandoned after neighbors moved out, the fourth picture. Never had their contact information. Helped him out on weight, got him his shots so he could be around our other animals, and have a neuter apt on 3/20/24. We think he is about a year old. Unfortunately we have too many other animals already to keep him including a small 18 year old terrier and an epileptic cat that require all of our time. He is a very intelligent boy with a lot of energy. He is highly trainable and would love tons of exercise. He is great with all dogs, cats, and children though he may be a bit clumsy for a baby right now in his youth. In the short time since finding him he has already learned to sit and wait when being fed. He is working on sitting and waiting everytime he crosses the street, place (bed), house (crate) and back up. He loves toys and sun bathing. We want him to have a happy home with someone who will keep him and love him forever.
