Story
Chewie absolutely loves going for walks. He gets so very excited to be leashed up. He is a good boy. Chewie gives the very best hugs. He does need careful introductions to new people. He will bark at them, but usually will give them a hug at the same time. He does get along with some dogs, but not all. Although he is a senior, he still enjoys playing with stuffed toys as well as chewys. Chewie suffers from allergies and takes daily allergy pills and gets allergy shots when needed. He is highly food motivated and would be very easy to housetrain. He enjoys being with his person and prefers women over men. He is a good watch dog too.

Oaklie came to us with no hair and horrible skin infections. All the infections have been cleared up, he is allergic to many foods and must remain on a special diet. He is very sweet and loves to rub all over his human. Some of his hair has grown back and we hope that more will continue to grow in the future. He has fairly high energy and a rough play style with other dogs.
