My story

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

Meet Erk! owners they said he was 10, but we believe him to be 6-9 years old, acts like 6, according to his teeth and eyes and our vet. hes a big guy, weighs about 73 pounds. He is a very smart boy and knows his basic commands to sit and stay. He is already neutered, microchipped and up to date with shots. cats, not sure, depends on cat. he is crate trained, and very loving. he will do anything for a treat. hes a great dog. adoption fee donation for erk.

UPDATE: Erk is here in maine in foster. hes a great boy. since we got him he has some medical issues that are being treated. we may offer him as hospice, and I would pay for his vetting. if you want to adopt Erk, please contact me FMI. we decided that he just wants to hang out with adults and no other dogs. older, calm kids may be ok. thanks so much.
