My story

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

Allow me to introduce myself! My name is Axl and I am a well-mannered dog who is looking for a home that I can call my own. I am a handsome brown brindle guy with white markings who is quite social. I have lived with kids, another dog and two cats in mt previous home. I guess you could say that I am a pretty well-rounded pup! As I am still very young, I love to run and play. Now I just need a buddy to play with! I love going on walks and have been told that I have very good leash manners. I would do great with an active person who enjoys outdoor activities. I am a gentle dog who sits nicely for my treats and takes them softly from your hand. I am looking for some who can continue with my training so I can be the best dog I can be. And because I am very treat motivated, any training you may want to do should go smoothly. If you are looking for a sweet dog who is sure to bring much joy and companionship to your life, consider me. You won't be sorry if you do!
