About Socks
Hi, my name is Socks and I am very cute. Due to ill health my family reluctantly passed me onto SRV for rehoming as I was not getting enough attention. I am a very friendly dog who can become very excitable when greeting in part due to not being walked regularly.
I absolutely love belly rubs and playing with water. Apart from being trained to sit, and drop I really enjoy doing tricks like roll over, spin, up - stand up on hind legs and if you point a finger and say bang - I will roll on my back and play dead. Pretty clever huh. I was assessed by Trish Harris of FourPaws K9 Dog Training who recommends that because I am so athletic with high energy I be given the chance to participate in some canine sports such as agility, flyball or even just as a jogging partner. Whatever form it takes, I require regular, active exercise.
I lived with 2 young children under five and although I loved them I get a bit over excited and jumped up, so would be better with older children.
I like to be fed at 6pm and will have a grizzle if dinner is late. Nor do I like to be outside when dark. \ I love sleeping inside in my crate and am dog friendly, although prefer big dogs like rotweillers to little dogs.

As we will already have your form on file it will fast track the process when a suitable dog does become available.
