Here's what the humans have to say about me:
My name is Luke and I came here on 8/17 after being abandoned in Shipman. Although it was sad, I think it was for the best, because I am a very smart dog and need to be in a home that can give me the exercise, time and training I desire. I really want to please! I know how to sit, walk on a leash and am very treat motivated! I'll do best in a home who will be consistent and remind me about the proper way to ask for attention. I'm a beautiful brindle boy who is a great dog. I'm not a digger or one that destroys stuff. I'm not a barky or mouthy dog. In fact, I'm pretty chill in my pen. I've never shown any bit of aggression at all. I'm just a young, energetic pup who needs calm, consistent, structured guidance. I had a sleep-over with one family and I did great with their small kids. I was fine sleeping in a crate there, and also did good with their pig, chickens, and dog (I like to play with other rough-and tumble dogs.) I LOVE to be rubbed under my chin, on my chest and around my ears. I hope for a family who will take me on walks, have a fenced yard, and let me cuddle with them. All I want is love and a chance to prove what an amazing boy. I have a heart of gold. I really do.
