My story

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

Please contact foster parent at ASENAKONURALP@GMAIL.COM


•Jumped into and out of car - no problem!
•Good car manners!
•At the pet store - no barking, jumping or lunging at other dogs; positive body language; friendly with people he met; lots of tail wagging!
•A little strong on leash at first, but settled nicely into our walk through Baxter Village (see video)!
•At home, Spike was more interested in his people than toys; very treat motivated and would “sit” for them; loved being off leash and running through the grass; stayed close to us and came when called.
•Met one of our resident dogs through a gate, and Spike maintained positive body language (see video clip)!
•He spotted our resident cat; took notice of her but did not lunge at the gate separating them; redirected his interest when we called to him and gave him treats.
