Story
Name: Aero Age: Young DOB: 3/13/25 Gender: Male Breed: German Shorthair Pointer/Cattle Dog mix Weight: 61 lbs Dog friendly:Yes Cat friendly: testing available upon request Child friendly: Yes House trained: Yes Crate trained: Yes Energy level: Moderate Temperament: Playful, Friendly, and Social Home Requirements:  Not apartment-appropriate; could be suitable for a duplex or condo Adoption Fee: $400+tax To adopt, go to: www.mendingspirits.org/apply-to-adopt.html   From the Foster Family: Meet Aero! Aero is a playful pup who has been settling into foster life quickly and gaining confidence every day. He does wonderfully with other dogs and often looks to them for guidance, making him a great fit for a home with a canine companion. Aero lives with two elementary-aged children and is gentle and loving with them, though he may choose a quiet spot if things get a bit loud or busy. He’s still learning to fully trust humans and does best when people get down on his level and give him time to warm up. Once comfortable, his affectionate and playful personality truly shines.   Potty training is going well with only a few minor accidents. Aero is still learning to enjoy his crate and will go in when prompted with treats. He currently sleeps and naps in his own gated room with a full view of the living area, which he enjoys. Aero doesn’t mind wearing a collar and is still adjusting to his leash and harness, but relaxes once outside. He loves running laps in a fenced yard and is an active pup who will benefit from regular exercise and playtime. Food motivation helps him learn quickly — especially since he’s known to pop up and dance on his back legs when treats appear! Aero is a sweet, observant pup with so much love to give and will thrive in a patient, active home ready to help him continue building confidence.   About Me: Hi! I’m Aero. I really love having dog friends around — they help me feel brave and show me how things work. I like kids too, if they get a little loud, I might take a break and watch from a cozy spot. I feel safest when my humans get down on my level and talk to me softly. I might be shy at first, but once I trust you, I promise I’m playful, loving, and so happy to be by your side. I’m learning all kinds of new things, like going potty outside and hanging out in my crate (especially when treats are involved). Speaking of treats… I get so excited that I sometimes stand up and dance on my back legs — I just can’t help it! I’m still learning to love my harness, but once I’m outside, I’m ready to explore! I’m learning fast and can’t wait to keep growing with a family who will love me as much as I’ll love them.      December 31, 2025, 9:32 pm
