APPLY DIRECTLY ON OUR WEBSITE: https://www.karmicrescue.org ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Levin's personality is a balance between independent and a cuddle bug. Quite a smart guy who is adventuresome and athletic in his own right. Levin will benefit from continued leash training and he requires daily walks as he has a good amount of energy. We want to ensure this enthusiastic puppy is a good fit for your long-term plans. Are you looking for a dog that needs 1+ hour walks daily? After his walks and an opportunity to stretch his legs, Levin can be quite calm, easy going, a cuddle bug and one of his favorite pass times is to take his chew toy to his doggie bed. He rides well in a car. Levin will give warning barks. Does well with men, women, and loves kids. Levin is a confident outgoing dog. PLEASE NOTE: He is just below 26 pounds, but he is not a small light-weight dog; 3 people have met him and expected him to be smaller, so we are reposting him as a medium size dog. He weighs around 25 pounds. He's a chunky monkey!

Story
We got her 2014 from the pound as just a little puppy she was found in a lot by herself, she’s been a good dog, but we have a child coming and a three year-old and it’s just too hard for us in such a small house dog is not the greatest with the toddler have to keep them supervised or separated would do great with an older couple or someone who can spend a lot of time with her. She likes to just sit and cuddle great for security. She will alert you if anybody comes into the house or knocks on the door. Very loyal dog and very protective of her owners has lived with another dog for a short time, but has had problems with other dogs just wanna see her go to a home where she will be loved and with someone who will have more time to spend with her
