My story

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

Junior was adopted as a puppy last year in Mexico. He is 1 year old, 62lb. He's an obedient and playful dog with high energy. He matches the energy of the dogs he is playing with, which is amazing in the dog park because he can chase or wrestle perfectly fine with almost any dog, play fetch with his human or even by himself tossing his toys around.
Needless to say, he is VERY handsome.

He is potty-trained and behaves great around food. He is very much food-driven, but he waits for a command to start eating as well as let you grab his plate. He is very curious and observant. He has separation anxiety with his human, but he is not destructive, just naughty. (He goes on the couch when left alone where he is not allowed, but he would never do it if I were around)

Sadly Junior does not have enough space or a backyard where we can be happier. He is a follower and ideally, he needs a backyard and a leader to help him manage energy and separation anxiety when his human is not around.
