My story

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

Meet Vega! This handsome guy is very smart and will amaze you will all his tricks like sit, paw, other paw, and down. He is extremely food motivated, which makes him eager to learn more! Vega is a very energetic dog and would strive in an active home with a structure routine. He did well in play group with another dog as well as a positive dog introduction with another male dog. He will likely be good with other dogs provided there is a slow and gradual introduction. Vega tends to be very vocal as he gets startled by new people. Due to being generally vocal dog, Vega would prefer to live in a low traffic and quiet neighborhood. If you're interested in meeting Vega, come on down to Anti-Cruelty today! Vega will be happily waiting to see you!
