Drake

Drake has been with us since he was a puppy. He's very food motivated. He knows: sit, shake, outside, & go to bed/kennel-as long as you have a treat handy! Occasionally scared of the dark. Primarily lives outside,but was house trained as well. He isn't trusting if he has food and you get near his mouth. He doesn't like cats or other small animals in our experiences. He plays well with others that are of similar size/or bigger and don't mind him being in their personal space. He can be very sweet and when he ''cuddles'' he can't get close enough to you, in HIS opinion, Drake needs an outlet for his vast amount of energy and love. Would continue to benefit from structure and would not recommend company of smaller animals.
