Hi! I am Strider and 1-2 years of age. My foster parents have had me for two months and I'm an incredible dog. Found on the side of the road starving, covered in fleas, and my poor teeth grind down in the front. I do require my food to be hydrated, but my mom says that is good for me anyways. I have shown zero aggression in any way and actually quite submissive. I would describe me as a sweet, fun, and energetic pup with a lot of love to give. My favorite thing is to sit in moms lap and hug and nibble her nose, and play rough and tough with dad. I love my sisters but they don't always love me with my loads of energy. I am kennel trained and house trained but I am still working on leash training. I can sit and I love my cage. I am dog and kid friendly but due to excessive energy over 2/3 years of age would be better. I am a little scared of the dark so mom has me a night light near my cage, and I can be a little bit of a klepto so my mom had to check my cage often for what she calls "choking hazards" but I call treasure. I would love to find a home with lots to give and may even be okay with keeping in contact with my foster parents. I am an inside dog only and will require a meet/greet and home visit.
Stider (A0052130493) is currently in foster care outside of the shelter. If you are interested in learning more or meeting Strider, please complete an adoption survey using the link below:
