My story

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

Meet Ike!

Howdy friends, my name is Ike and since I'm a young adult, you might be wondering what the heck I'm doing at Albert's Dog Lounge! Well, you see, I have myself a funny little walk that might be a mild case of cerebellum hypoplasia. That just means I am what I am, and there's nothing to do to fix it. I'm happy and healthy, weighing just about 30 pounds, with more growing to do. I'm not in pain, and I'm friendly with everyone. I get along with other dogs, but if they are more my age, the better, because I don't always take cues the way I should from older pups that they don't want to play. I really like cats, and I like to play chase with them, but I don't ever hurt them. I'm a really good boy, and I'm working on going potty outside every time I need to go, and I'm completely crate trained. I do well with kiddos, too, but since I'm young yet, I'm still working on my manners, and I would never want to knock a little one over.

I love love love playtime with my fur siblings here in my foster home! And I love to sniff and run and go for walkies! Just like any younger boy, I have energy, and I like to get it out of my system. I sometimes try to show the other puppers in the house that all the food is mine, so foster mom and dad are working really hard with me on this. In just one short week, they have seen a significant improvement and would love to share with my forever family how they can help me be the very best doggo friend! My new home should be fun, but also disciplined. My new family should want to add a devoted, loving, smart, loyal member! Do you think I can be the newest addition to your family?

*Ike is being fostered in the Janesville area.
