Ethan

Ethan is 9 years old. He is very sweet. He loves going outside, walking, playing with toys, cuddling, and he loves kisses. He will go on car rides but will whine.

He will do better with older kids in the home, and preferably the only dog. He is neutered, and up to date on his shots. He will like most dogs need time to warm up to people. He likes to do it on his own terms. But outside of that once he gets to know and trust you, you’ll have a friend and a shadow for life. Right now we have a dog that has diabetes and it’s hard to manage both. It’s been very taxing on us. We’d love a person who will be patient with Ethan and understand that he will need to learn and adjust to his he’s home.
