My story

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

Name: Ryder
DOB: 7/16/2015
Age: 17 months
Breed: Unsure - Boxer, Pit maybe?
How long have I had him: About 1 year
Where I got him from: Through a friend who saw he was going into a shelter
Microchip: Yes, HomeAgain (paper work available if needed)
Immunizations up to date: Yes (paper work available if needed)

Personality:
Energy level: High! Loves running.
Cat/dog friendly: High-intensity play that can escalate if the energy doesn't match. Going to training classes to work on his energy-control when socializing with other dogs.
Human friend: He LOVES being play with and his butt being scratched
Kid friendly: Yes in a controlled setting - working on maintaining calm play
Has he every bit anyone?: Not to this date!

Behaviors:
Crate trained: Yes
House broken: Yes
Leash trained: Will walk on leash, will pull towards other animals on the street
Commands he follows: Sit, Touch (to come to you), leave it, drop it, wait, stay, go to bed (to go to dog bed), go home (to go to crate)
Is he allowed on furniture: Yes
Destructive: When bored with no dog toys otherwise typically no when watched

What he needs: Someone who can give him love and attention on a regular basis. He loves to run around so a backyard would be ideal for him. He loves tugging and playing fetch. Ryder is very loyal and will maintain that loyalty if you give him good butt scratches :)
