My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Bandit is a 3 years old, full or energy and very smart. He knows his basic commands and is very eager to please. He learns new trick quickly with food as a reward. He was very quick in learning the routine of the foster home. He ignores the cat, even when they are in his way. He tolerates other dogs, but would do best as the only dog. Being a terrier he will need an owner that knows the breed and is able to exercise him and keep him from getting bored. He loves back scratches, loves his walks and loves his treats.
UPDATE: Sept 29th
Bandit has been at the foster home for a while now. He understands the routine of the house and is quick to adjust to changes. He even went on vacation with the family. While on vacation, they learned that Bandit does not like to swim, and he was not to thrilled being on a boat either. He did however love exploring the woods and chasing frogs. He is very smart and full of energy. He will need a guardian that is willing and able to exercise him to drain his energy. He is not a couch potato and running around in the backyard is not enough for him. He would be great a agility or fly ball. He is great with smaller dogs and cats, but has issues with dogs that are bigger than him.
