My personality

Why I need a new home

Relocating

My story

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

3-year-old pitty mix (exact genetics unknown, he is a rescue).

Weighs around 70 lbs. Up to date on all his shots, no health issues.

Has 1.5 cups of food twice a day. Eats right away as soon as you put food in his bowl, no matter the time of day.

Has lots of energy, very playful and affectionate when he gets to know you. Good at listening to commands like sit, come, and out.

Loves running around outside, going on walks, laying in the sun, and running with a bike. Dislikes having his nails clipped, also dislikes vacuums/dust busters (the noise drives him crazy so we keep him in his crate while vacuuming).

When outside home, he is fine around strangers. When at home, he barks when he senses someone at the door (this might be something he can be trained out of in a new environment where he has less pent-up energy).

Plays well with other dogs in off-leash environments like dog parks. When on walks, he might stare at other dogs but never lashes out.
