On Hold
Hi there my name is Pooch!
I am a very well-mannered man who loves to lounge around. I have had previous training and can sit and shake, and I never jump up on people when excited.
I am a super social dude who loves to give licks and get pats!
I love to run and be silly, but also like to spend plenty of time on the couch.
I have a calm demeanour when meeting new people, and do okay when meeting new dogs.
I would need to be match with the right buddy if i was to live with another dog though.
I would be suited to somebody with a large backyard or access to land for me to run and go on adventures.
Strictly no cats please!
