My story

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

Chance, 4 yr, Boxer mix
Likes - loves his walks, especially sniff walks, lick mats, puzzles, treat motivated for sure, loves playing fetch, a huge cuddle bug, loves being close to his person
Dislikes - starting to trust other people, not a fan of strange men, hesitant to go outside at night, slowly being socialized with other dogs
Ideal home - Quiet, calm
Good with other cats- unknown
Good with dogs - lives with one other foster dog, they get along, slowly being socialized to neighborhood dogs while on walks
Good with children - unknown
Temperament - laid-back, cuddly, loves being active, also loves his naps
Motivators - Treats, loves food
Knows sit, wait, paw, down
House trained - yes
Crate trained - yes, but has only been left in crate, alone for 5 hours max
How long will it take to settle into a new environment - warmed up to his foster right away, very loving
Any special needs or traits an adopter should know - will bark at strangers, not sure he trusts strangers just yet, will pull on leash without his harness, does not like the car- whines, will jump up and. ‘mouth' when excited, working on
Medical: Seasonal Allergies (may require medication for flare ups)
