My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Moose: Goofy and sweet at about 2 years old, this boy has a wonderful disposition. He is friendly and playful with other dogs, does not pay much attention to cats, and can't get enough love and affection from humans.
He is still underweight and we are working on helping him put on weight slowly as to not upset his digestive track. He generally does the side curl when he meets new folks which makes you melt because it is almost as if he is saying, "oh please love me."
Lately, as he is getting more acclimated, we are seeing a very happy and jumpy side to Moose which is fantastic but he may overwhelm very young kids or kids who are not experienced with dogs---we are thrilled to see him recognizing people he knows so are not being too hard on him for the jumping but he is certainly in our manners program and already has a lovely sit, he is 100% trainable and learns new things everyday. Please come meet him ASAP!
