Here's what the humans have to say about me:
PETEY is a 3 year old neutered yellow male Lab who weighs 57 pounds. Petey lived the first three years of his life in a pen with another dog. When he first arrived with us he was very shy and anxious. He has since come out of shell a lot and has come to enjoy the attention of humans and other dogs no longer scare him. He does great in a crate, can be a little vocal at times, but is mostly quiet and settled. After some initial accidents he has done well with his house training. Petey is a sweet boy who just wants love and attention after an early life of neglect. He has put on some much needed weight and is really learning how to be a great dog. Physical fence preferred, but will consider no fence depending on area, NO e-fences. Petey is OK on leash but still needs some work. He is a good rider. Crate trained and house trained. He is good with other dogs. No cat history. Approved for kids 10+.
