Story
Sully is a wonderful companion! He loves to run & play, but also loves to snuggle on the couch. He has had extensive training (basic command classes & a 3 week private board and train) and is crate trained. The perfect human for Sully will take some time to work with him on re-establishing the things he learned in training (mostly leash skills). He has mild hip dysplasia, but regular walks and exercise help to keep the pain away. Sully gets along well with other dogs. He does need to be in a home without cats or children.

Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
For Wrigley, a single-family home in a suburban or rural area could be ideal. A fenced yard would allow her to explore safely while minimizing the disturbance of her possible barking to neighbors. A home with a dedicated space where she can feel secure and comfortable, along with someone who can spend time with her during the day, would ensure she feels happy and content. She is house trained and may take some time adjusting to a new home. She enjoys walks and is friendly with other dogs. A leash is necessary, as she will chase a scent if she gets one. She had 9 teeth removed and remains in good health and active for her age. Enjoys sitting on furniture, so not recommended for anybody who is against it.

Hey there, I'm Silver! I'm 1 years old. I'm sweet, but a bit when I first meet you. I promise if you take the time to get to know me, we will be the best of friends! I do like treats. It's unsure how I do with children, but slow introductions are best as I am a little skittish to new things. My fosters enjoy taking me for walk and going to the beach. They say that I'm such a good boy and I've gotten so brave. I LOVE other dogs and would do best in a home with other dogs. Apply to adopt me today!
