My story

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

Axel
Breed: Shepherd mix
Estimated Birthday: 12/12/2012
Weight: 45 pounds
House & crate trained

Axel's past is unfortunately unknown. While we can never fully understand his past, we do know he is very wary of men. Axel is a ladies man through & through and would prefer a female caretaker and female doggy companion.

- Knows his basic commands like 'sit' and 'shake' and walks lovely on leash.
- Takes time to get used to strangers and needs an adopter who is willing to be patient with him as he learns to trust
- You can always catch Axel with a toy in his mouth! He loves zippy paws toys and will carry his "babies" around in his mouth
- Enjoys following you all around the house and just wants to be with you
- Likes to snuggle on your lap or lay right up next to you! As long as part of him is touching you he is content!
- Does well with female teenagers & female adults.
- Does well in the crate but also can free roam in his foster's home
- Due to Axel only liking female dogs, he would not be suitable for dog park/dog bark environments.
- Has not been tested with cats

During a home visit, a Catering to Cats and Dogs volunteer will come to your house to see where your new pet will live.
