My story

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

"Hi my name is Dezzie, I'm a 7 month old boy who is looking for a forever home. My foster Mom says I'm a "gem," whatever that means. She's already taught me some manners: I'm housebroken, I know how to sit, I walk next to her when she uses a leash and even when she doesn't, I stay real close. She said she should have named me "Velcro," but I don't want to get lost and live on the street again. I love taking rides in the car and when she goes into the store I wait for her patiently in the front seat and then move to the back when I see her coming. I love it when she throws the ball for me. She's trying to get me to bring it back but I just drop it wherever I want and she gets it, she's getting really good at it too. Sure I'm a little shy at first, after all I haven't been exposed to people for very long, so I don't trust everyone yet but I warm up quickly. I do prefer Mommies over Daddies (Daddies are a bit intimidating to me, they're so big! ) but I love all the kids that come to visit me. Please call the shelter to set up a visit with me as I am currently in a foster home.
