My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

We received a desperate call from an overloaded high-kill shelter. The workers at the shelter were frantically trying to save Axel from being euthanized. We said we'd take him and find him a good home. We don't know how he ended up in that shelter, but we do know that he is a very sweet guy who will make someone very happy. Axel is about 9-12 months old and weighs 44 pounds. Please help Axel find the loving home he deserves.

From Axel's foster: He is a really sweet dog. He is housebroken, not one accident in the house. Knows basic commands, learns very quickly, very friendly and polite with our dogs. Can play fetch for hours with his favorite stick. Loves car rides and the dog park. Loves napping on the sunny porch. Very gentle when getting a treat. Calm eater. Sleeps well through the night (out of crate). Doesn't like a crate too much. Overall, he is a perfect dog. We just love him so much. He has brought much laughter and joy to our family.
