I love getting to explore in the backyard and play with the female rescue dogs. It's best I be the only male doggo in my next home. I'd love to have a friendly lady friend to play with! 4. Since I'm a young guy, I need to learn all the obedience work. I'm smart and can learn anything with treats & patience. Will you paw-promise to train me? 5. Now that fall is here, I'd love to go on walks, hikes, hang out in the backyard, or anything outdoorsy as long as I'm with you. 6.

Quick Facts Age: 8-10months Dogs: good with other large dogs Kids: would do fine with older kids (10+) Cats: NO cats Training: needs standard obedience training 1. My backstory is pretty sad.

Thanks to my wonderful foster mom, I was saved and brought into the safety of IDGSR! 2. Since being rescued, I've made a full recovery and am the happiest, most loyal, and oh so loving big boy. I am grateful for love, affection, tummy rubs, and tasty treats. 3. I get along great with other large breed doggos and would love to have a friend to play with. Even tho I'm a big boy, I'm a gentle player. Anyone up for a game of zoomies?! 4. I am very food & treat motivated! I need to learn some nice manners and obedience commands, will you paw-promise to train me? It will help us bond & prove I'm the bestest boy around. 5. I'm a fun loving, affectionate, goofy, friendly, loyal, and handsome guy. I'd love to snuggle up with you on a cold winter night and watch a movie or help you in the kitchen! 6.
