Story
We adopted Appa a bit over a year ago, as a puppy. He was born October 22, 2024. He is a sweet, smart dog. He has learned to sit, lay down, "place" (go lay down in a certain spot), stay (we are working to extend the time, but he can "stay" with reminders for almost a minute). Appa is 100% housetrained. We have 3 cats who he loves and is very gentle with. We have 2 children (tween & teen) whom he adores. Issues are in getting him leash trained. He is very distracted outside and pulls a lot on the leash. We do not have a yard, but I have taken him to a friend's fenced in yard and he loves it. He loves to play fetch. We are experiencing a shift in our family make up and now have only one adult, so can no longer provide the care he needs, thus are looking to rehome him. Appa would make a great pet for someone with a fenced in yard and time to spend indoors with him. He likes to be close to "his people".

Story
Appa is a very smart, loyal, quick to learn dog who loves to play fetch and tug. He is great at catching balls and frisbees, and loves to eat ice cubes. He has learned several commands inside the house - sit, laydown, wait, off, place. He is eager to please. Appa is fully housetrained. He does not do well on a leash... yet. He could learn to walk on a leash, but needs practice. Appa would do very well with a fenced yard for running and playing fetch. He is a great balance of fun and cuddling up beside his family.
