Here's what the humans have to say about me:
My name is Beethoven. I am the goofiest boy in the world! I am a chunky (yes chunky) 70 lbs and about 8 months. I am FULL of joy and smiles. Let's get the basics out of the way - I am crate trained and housebroken. I got the housebreaking thing immediately so something is working in my brain! I am great with all dogs - big and small (I live with the tiniest foster dog right now and I try to play with her too!). I love ALL people big and small too! BUT, I am big and burly and there is a knock down factor! I love the kids that I live with 7+. I think I am a lap dog and I think that where I belong is basically on your lap and on the couch next to you! I am still a pup even though I am big! I need toys and some activity and a little exercise. I haven't had much time on a leash yet but you better believe that I would LOVE to go out exploring and to meet everyone. I am such a cool dog. This is my first experience in a real indoor home and I couldn't be happier!
