My story

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

3 1/2 year old male (but acts much younger!)
petite (I'd guess around 50 lbs)
good w/ kids
loves people
good on leash (unless he sees a bunny)
knows sit, down, potty trained
treat motivated
follows us around the house - He is the type of dog who loves to have a hand on him at all times!
loves to be touched
plays with toys, plays fetch, chews
kenneled when we are gone
He was nervous to get in the car but once in there, he settled down and rode just fine. I don't think he's used to riding in cars. He also does this funny thing at the doors that go outside. He won't go outside or come back inside unless we praise him and tell him it's ok.

He's defiantly active so he needs an energy outlet whether that be running (he ran for 30 minutes with me this morning and could go much, much longer), long walks, daily hikes, doggy daycare, or doggy family members to wrestle around with.

Bottom line: Rusty is a loveable boy who is looking for an active family to enjoy hiking, running, and playing with!
