My story

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

Meet Matlin! This funny guy is about 53 pounds and has a medium energy. He was originally found by a good Samaritan wandering around by a school. He is housetrained and crate trained and is pretty good at entertaining himself. He loves balls and toys and will flop them around playing with himself. He does well with male and female dogs, with proper introductions (he just needs to get a little excitement out on a walk first) and enjoys playing and then hanging out with other dogs. He lived off and on with a cat and did okay. He was curious, and would chase some if they ran, but otherwise lived peacefully with them. So he may be suited for a home with cats, but we always recommend slow introductions to cats in a new home. He has done well with older kids, but very small children are unknown. This boy is very sweet and funny. Come meet this boy at our shelter!
