I’m pretty dang good at it, I’ve got some sharp teeth that can hang onto her extra fur really well! I love food and I’m easily distracted by anything going on around me. I think every human I see wants to say hello, and if they have a dog too. My moms keep telling me, that’s not always the case - so don’t run up to strangers! Looking forward to meeting new friends.“

• “Fox is an older man who will bark at anything or one who wants to get too close. He gets very proud of himself for “protecting” us. He is obsessed with playing fetch and loves to go swimming. He has been fine with other dogs after getting over barking at them but, he’s so vocal I just try to keep them away, aside from his sister (not blood related) He has to pee everywhere his sister does and the both do little licks afterwards. He’s got the basic commands down and had excellent recall.“

  — Sarah K.

• “I am a highly energetic and loving, but also fearful and protective little pup who needs places to run around without fear of seeing new people or dogs.“

  — Sean K.
