Story
He's a very happy puppy that loves to play. He has always immediately made friends with anyone that visits family or otherwise. He tends to play rough with others but will stop if things get to be too much. We are hoping he can go to a home that will be able to play with him and let him run around. He needs attention and love and will be quick to return it twice over.
