I have had Wilson for 3 years; he was adopted and has been very loved. This is not an easy decision but due to a recent health scare and a new job that requires travel 4 days a week I would like to have a loving home for him to be a part of.
He is a sweetheart, he loves being outside and sunbathing, playing fetch, belly rubs and naps. He is good with kids and has been around other dogs. We hike trails and go for walks also. He is 4 years old, house trained outside of a kennel, has dietary issues due to allergies (allergic to beef and chicken) he eats lamb/salmon dry dog food.
He would be great for a single individual, older person to keep company, or a family looking to have some extra love and protection.
