Story
Hi, I'm Yogi, a two year, 8 month old 63 pound Shepherd/Carolina Dog mix, and I am a lover of my people.
I am fostered in Albany, Oregon.
I love kids of every age, and I am very adaptable to each child's style of doggie love: I enjoy playing with the 5 year old and snuggling with the teen. My current family says I am good at cheering anyone up when they are sad.
I also love adults, and other dogs. I live with a dog savvy cat, and we do fine (see the photo). I am house trained and can be left on my own loose at home. I am crate trained though we seek a no closed crate home.
I love being with my people most of all. I love belly rubs, my chicken toy, car rides, zoomies, playing keep away, chasing a ball and chewing a bone. If I sound like a dream boat, well, I am.
.
I am working on walking nicely on leash. More practice with someone knows positive ways to teach me loose leash walking would be great. My rescue can help with good positive training videos and information.
Though I have been doing fine without a lot of exercise most days, I would love a more active life. Just know that I am pretty easygoing about it, if some days we just hang out.
I take a little time to warm up to visitors coming into my home,. Patient dog savvy owners who can help me with good introductions, or folks without a lot of guests (low traffic homes), will be a great fit.
I seek a home with a full sized fenced yard or acreage, and active folks who will include me in their fun activities.
Yogi is neutered, vaccinated, de-wormed, and micro-chipped. His adoption fee is $200. He comes with his supplies: toys, balls, harness, his remaining dog food.
A great home for Yogi and his must haves include:
1. An owned home with a full sized fenced yard or acreage.
2. Folks not gone long hours, and who will treat Yogi like a family member and include him in their fun activities.
3. Adopters who believe in giving their dogs daily exercise, offering good nutrition and vet care. Folks who use only positive reinforcement training.
4. Yogi will do well with any age child with great dog manners, nice dogs, dog savvy cats and a low traffic home or dog savvy folks who help him with introductions.
