Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Rex is 52 pounds of pure love. He is crate trained, knows how to sit and fetch, loves to snuggle, go for walks and just sit and be petted. Loves all dogs and to be get and give hugs. He would be a wonderful addition to any family.
Update:
Hey there! My name is Rex and if you don’t want any pesky squirrels or rabbits in your yard than I am totally your guy. I am great at following my nose and I’m very strong so I guess a fence might be a good idea so I don’t get myself in trouble. After I come back in from keeping your yard pest free I can show you my world class snuggling skills because, not to brag too much, but I really am the best. I also love following my people around so I won’t miss a thing. Other dogs seem pretty interesting so far and it might be fun to have a playmate or go to the dog park sometime but if I get the scent of one of those pests again my hearing turns off until I find them. I do listen well in the house though once you get my attention, especially with treats and the clicker, and I’m told I pick up on some things the people want me to do pretty fast but I do need more lessons. I love being goofy and playing but sometimes my humans throw my toys, which of course I like to chase, and I think they expect me to bring the toys back to them for some reason. Weird right?
I’m curious to know what cats are but I’m pretty freaked out by them when they turn and hiss at me and try to scratch me so I think a home without them would be much nicer. Small people are so exciting and energetic and I since they are close to my size I like to try to play with them like another dog and because I’m strong and kind of clumsy I end up knocking them on the floor which no one seems to appreciate. I also really don’t like it when they try to take my bones or food, even though I understand that the big people can, so I think I’d rather be in a place that doesn’t have any of those little ones.
I’m told that my wrinkly face, big brown eyes and slight underbite are adorable and I bet I can steal your heart in the first ten minutes I meet you so maybe you should come check me out today.
