Additional info:
Captain is a high energy, playful dog who gets along well with everyone. He would be a great hiking partner as well as a great family dog for someone who lives an active lifestyle. He would adore frisbee or agility exercises. He is not at all aggressive and he sleeps throughout the night in his crate. He can get a little spooked by new people or joggers at first but once he knows someone he is totally fine. Captain was adopted out of the shelter only to be returned because he is an escape artist. Due to his mad Houdini tendencies (he can jump onto high tables), he will need a person who can be extremely careful with doors, windows and leaving him unattended in a yard or balcony. He cannot be left unattended in a yard where the fences are less than 5 ft. Yeah, he's that good!
