My story

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

My name is Petey!

I am a little over a year old and weigh around 26 lbs. I was found on the street back in November but my foster owners are unable to keep me.

I love to be around my owners and look for any chance to curl up next to them—on the floor, on the couch/bed (if they let me), or even on their lap in a chair despite my size. At first I can be a little protective and may bark at strangers, but I warm up pretty quickly when I see they are friendly. I like women and children and tend to bark only at men.

I often use my arms for playing with people and other dogs and it can be pretty funny! I like to meet new dogs but can be a little on guard around them initially so please be patient. I have been making more progress learning how to play. However, I will chase after cats and smaller dogs if I get the chance, so I would prefer a household without them.

I know how to "sit," "stay," "come here," and "bed." I love car rides and will hop into the car without any hesitation.
