I am a 2 year old boy who was found running the streets of a small town. I am a strong boy but one who listens. I want to be a good boy and listen to my owners. I am very smart and I am easy to train. I would do best if I am the only dog because I am dominant and if challenged I will fight. I am fully vetted and ready to go to my new furever home.
