Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Rin Tin: How is someone not missing this sweetheart? We are perplexed how anyone could not be desperately looking for this mild mannered, polite, and lovable guy because WE ALL just can't wait to see his wiggly body and sweet face everyday! He is an adult dog, past all his adolescent craziness, and ready for a few nice walks and some good companionship.
He was found wandering stray and was very underweight and although we are giving him extra feedings, he is having a hard time putting back on his weight, probably due to the stress of the kennels. He has learned to be lovely and easy on a leash, is very polite with other dogs, loves people, is very appropriate with young kids, and is getting to be quite good at playing fetch in the yard.
RinTin would do really terrific in any environment and is well-behaved enough to handle living in an apartment or city but would also love to wander and hike with you int he country off-leash because he does not stray far from his people. In his video, you will see how happy he is to be with our trainer and she reports that her teenagers have nothing but rave reviews about him so he could be your family dog in a heartbeat! Again, who would not want this long lanky hunk of a dog??? He is ready steady to get into a home setting where he can fatten up and live the life he truly deserves!
