My story

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

I really appreciate you taking him, and finding a home for him, he is just a great pup. To give you a little background on him, he has shown absolutely no aggression of any kind, no matter what-you can take his food, toys, bones, etc, right out of his mouth, he'll share his food, toys, bones, whatever, with our other dogs with no problem. When he came to us, I'm guessing whoever had him just left him outside, he had no manners and no housetraining. I have housetrained him, but its a fairly new concept for him, so he may forget a bit at first at a new house, as most dogs do. He's been around my cats, and if they run, he will chase, in a playful way, but has made no attempt to bite them. He's been around my adult cat and sniffs at her, but leaves her alone since she doesn't run from him. We have a kitten, Gracie, who is a 5 lb fur covered sack of pure evil, and he can't be loose around her, her main goal in life is to torment the dogs(she jumps off the couch onto the back !
> of our cattle dog, and rides her around the house), and the 2 of them are just too exitable around each other, and I think Gracie would end up getting hurt since she's still so small. When Chuy is in the house, either Gracie is in her kennel, or in the bedroom, and they play through the openings in the kennel, or under the door(Gracie sticks her paws out as far as she can under the door, and Chuy lies down in front of the door, and lets Gracie smack him in the face)
>
>He's a very strong, active dog, but he's very sweet and has been easy to train. He loves curling up on the sofa with us and watching tv. He needs plenty of chew toys, he seems to prefer stuffed toys and chewy kong type toys over nylabone type chews. (he has a fondness for sofa pillows, as well) He of course loves the big beef bones from petsmart. He loves splashing around on the top step of the pool, he's always wet!
