My story

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

Spence is a very sweet dog with lots of young dog energy which needs an outlet. Consequently, he would make a great running or hiking partner. Spence is also an amazing ball handler-- he moves the ball around with his paws and nose like a pro. Very cute! Spence did quite well on his temperament test: he doesn't have any handling or aggression issues, and has responded passively when challenged. Basically, he's a young, enthusiastic dog who needs some training. He might even work in a home with a cat if the proper guidance were given. Spence is also people-oriented and loves to get pets and praise. In return for kindnesses large and small, Spence will give you a great big hug around the waist, and only reluctantly will he let go and continue on a walk. Spence also seems to get along well with other dogs, and has cavorted joyfully in the play area with well-matched females. The shelter environment is starting to get to this sensitive boy, so he could really use a forever-home right now, with all the warmth and peacefulness that the phrase implies. When one finally comes along, we have no doubt that Spence will show his gratitude for a long, long time.
