“He is a playful pup who loves toys, especially the squeaky kind! His favorite game is tug, but he really needs a buddy to play that game. Maybe it could be you?”
The three-year-old dog is past puppyhood, but still active and would love some outdoor adventures. “He is also a very affectionate guy, so don't be surprised if he puts his paws on your lap and smothers you in sweet little doggie kisses when you meet.”
