My story

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


Contact foster at: jaacostar12@gmail.com


Smoky is a perfect gentleman. He knows how to sit, shake hands and lay down on command. He communicates his needs by walking to his leash and harness or when he wants to join you on the couch. He`s a perfect adventure buddy that loves hikes, playing in the water or simply being in the car while you go on errands. He`s potty trained as well and doesn`t unnecessarily bark when he`s inside. His favorite things are walks, playing tug of war and running across the apartment playing fetch with his chew bone.

More about Smoky:
