He is alert, wants to please and is very treat motivated, so teaching him routines and commands should be fairly simple. He has already learned to "come" and will "stay" when asked. This smart boy was also house trained after the first day. Dusty has learned to go up and down the stairs to go to bed. He is crated when he is alone for a significant period of time but is trustworthy in the bedroom at night. He has a normal young dog's amount of energy and jumps over a short flower garden perimeter with such joy that his foster wonders if he might love agility training. He needs a secure fenced-in yard since he is a bit shy of strangers and might take off. He does well with women but has consistently been fearful of the men he has come in contact with. Please consider this happy, mellow-in-the-house but fun-loving outside adolescent for your new best friend. NOTE: Dusty needs a physically fenced in yard. The adoption fee for Dusty is $500.Dont forget to visit our informative website, www.almosthomeohio.org, for valuable information and interesting features.
