Information:
12/22/13: Abe is a very sweet boy who loves being around people. When I grab my keys he gets so happy!! Abe knows where his leash is and will sit until I get it on him. He walks very well with a leash! When we get in the car he gets on his seat and will stay there until we stop. Abe is a smart boy and knows sit, stay, down and speak. He is not a barker and will only bark when you ask him to speak. He doesn't mind big dogs as long as they stay away from his face, and dogs his own size don't bother him. Abe doesn't like the cage and prefers to sleep in a bed or a blanket on the floor. Abe is not food aggressive. In fact, he loves to take a mouth full of food and eat it away from the dish and then go back for more!! Abe loves toys, and thinks every toy is his, and so we are working on that problem. If you would like to make sweet Abe a part of your family, please fill out an application today!
