I am a relaxed older dog (just over 8 years old) that is looking for someone who wants to hang out. I love to go for walks or play for a bit but and am really happy to come home afterwards and chill. At home, I really just want to be in the same room as you.

I am really good with the 9 and 11 year old small humans in my foster family. I like playing with them but I don’t try to knock them over. I love chasing the ball (for a short time) or even a laser pointer!! I am also good at politely telling them when they do something I don’t really like.

I am fully house trained and only chew on the toys my foster mom and dad give me. I am not crate trained but am pretty good at staying home although my foster dad works from home so I don’t spend a lot of time on my own right now.

My foster mom and dad have been working with me on walking with a leash and am really good. I don’t pull much with gentle reminders. I now stay pretty calm when people walk or bike past but likely need to keep practicing. I do get excited when I see other dogs on the leash but with a bit of space between me and the other dog, and some reminders, I can get back on track.

I would probably do best as either an only dog or maybe with a female dog who is really calm. My foster mom has seen me hang out with another dog so she knows I can do it with proper introductions and some time. I am not sure about cats since my foster mom doesn’t have any but it may not be a good match as I do like to chase things.

Maybe I would be a good fit with your family?
