Hi, I`m Coltrane! I`m a little schnauzer mix who is ready to find my forever home. I`m currently in foster care, and my foster has a lot of good stuff to say about me:
`Coltrane loves to play with other dogs. In fact, he seems to trust dogs more than people! He’s very cautious about getting close to people at first but eventually warms up to them. He is very gentle taking treats and food out of your hand, and he loves chewing toys like Nylabones. He probably should not live with small children because of his nervousness around people and his rough play style. He likes to chase squirrels, so should not live with cats or other small, free-roaming animals. He is housebroken, but he is still working on leash manners, play manners, and basic obedience skills. Coltrane has lots of energy and is very happy dog when he finally learns to trust you!`
I sound like a pretty great pup! I do need to live with another dog, because I get very anxious around people. Other dogs help me feel more comfortable so that I can be brave. I`m only 1.5 years old, so my new dog friend should be playful, or else they might find me pretty annoying! I`d make a great playmate for a young adult who is energetic and confident! I`d also love to live in a house with a secure, fenced-in yard. I have a history as an escape artist, so I will still need to be supervised whenever I have my backyard time. I`d love to do more training with my new family so that I can bond with them more quickly! If you think you have the right home for me, apply today!
Special Requirements: Must live with another dog, No cats, Children 12+
