My story

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

Our first dog had him as a puppy. So we have raised him from scratch - almost. He went to a good home when he was about 3 months old. They ended up having to relocate and gave him back to us at 7 months. When he came back, he was excessively hyper, which we figured was a puppy phase. We've done various training techniques with him but even in his adult years, he is still very energetic. A couple hours at the dog park helps get this energy out, but like a toddler, the energy is back the next day. He barks a lot, even at the wind sometimes; digs lots of holes, and is a heavy chewer. Though we give him plenty of bones and toys, he prefers to chew on wood. He is also teaching our other dog these bad habits...We'd like to rehome to someone who has the time, energy, and resources to continue working with him on training and burning his energy daily. Recommending he go to a home on a farm or people with time on their hands. BUT he's adorable, an excellent cuddler & kisser, and loves to love.
