My story

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

This active little man is Meatball and he is hoping to find his loving forever home. We are collecting applications for review for this guy and then selecting someone to come in and meet with him. Meatball is an active and rambunctious player who can make some pretty scary sounds when he gets over-excited. As long as you are patient with him and let him come to you, he will let you pet him but he is more interested in playing. He is especially fond of rope toys or anything else he can tug on. He can be rough when he plays so he needs a really experienced home that can read his signals and cope with his exuberance. Meatball needs to be signed up for positive, reward-based training classes before going to his new home so he can learn some manners, bond with his new people, and socialize with dogs and people. Interacting with other dogs will teach him to play more appropriately. As such, he will do best going to a home with another active dog that he can wrestle and play with. Meatball has demonstrated a prey drive here and should go to a home without cats or small animals. He also needs a home with teenagers or adults only. If you are interested in adopting Meatball, please come to the front to submit an application for review.
