Weight: 50 lbs
Medical Needs: none
Housebroken: Absolutely
Crate trained: Treat to go in & then settles unless he knows you’re home in which case he will whine

Good on a leash: Generally yes, he has a tendency to pull if you let him wander and sniff a lot
Energy level: High, he’s a busy body
Need a fenced in yard: No, but then he would need extra walkies

Does your foster need another dog in its adoptive homes? No
Cat Friendly? No
Kid Friendly: Yes
If yes, what's the youngest child you'd recommend they be placed with? 8+ due to his rambunctious nature & mouthiness
Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them?
Suitcase is super food motivated so when teaching him new things it’s easy to reward him. But patience and consistency are key with this fella as he has many moments where you may wonder if anything is actually happening in that head of his Suitcase is very friendly with dogs and loves to play, but he can play rough. He needs a family that is patient and will be consistent, when we humans slack off some of his naughty behaviors (jumping/mouthing) return. He would love a family/person that’s going to help him continue to grow into the best possible version of himself
