Story
About Me Langston found his way to SCGRRescue when his family moved out of the country and couldn’t take him. His foster family describes Langston as “a perfect dog in almost every way.” He is sweet, loving, affectionate, and playful but it will take time for Langston to settle into a new home and to feel like he can completely relax and trust his new family. Once he does, you will have a sweet, happy, tail-waggly best friend for life who just wants to please! Langston has lived peacefully with cats in his prior life, plays well with other dogs, and would do best in an adults-only home. Langston is completely potty trained, crate trained (although it’s been used sparingly), and does not counter surf…although he DOES sometimes look at you with his big, puppy dog eyes when food is involved! He is very smart – he knows his left from his right paw, can “high five,” and responds well to redirection when needed. We believe he is a Golden/herding breed mix, which means he has some energy and loves to work, so he will not do well simply left unattended in the backyard. Rather, Langston needs a family who will spend a lot of time with him and who will offer mental stimulation and physical activity. When this is provided, he will wait patiently and is not destructive when left alone at home for a few hours. During his time in rescue, Langston has been working on some anxiousness around the front door and meeting strangers with ease. He has done beautifully in dog play groups but is anxious on leash when he sees other dogs. He has been working with a trainer on these issues, and has been making huge strides thanks to his diligent foster parents who consistently work on his established training protocols. We hope that his forever family will continue the work that we started in order to give Langston the best life possible. My Ideal Home Langston requires a quiet, adults-only, low-key home that doesn’t get a lot of action or visitors. He needs a family who will spend a lot of time with him, chill with him and play with him. A backyard would be ideal. No apartments for this guy as it would be too stimulating for him at the moment. His family should be committed to continuing his training. He could be an only dog or with another well-balanced, well-socialized dog. Cats should be ok but always be cautious when introducing a dog to cats in a new home for safety. Want to Adopt me?
