This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped.
Fatty likes to drink out of the garden hose!
He also loves to play fetch, play in the yard with other dogs, swim, and sit on the couch for a snuggle or two! This handsome lad is house trained and crate trained, and needs a bit more work on leash - he's a big boy and tends to pull. Though he gets along with other dogs, he doesn't care to eat with other dogs around. He definitely needs a home with no small animals (sorry, kitties) - he will bark intensely at them. He has also been known to kill chickens and ducks, so a fowl-free home is essential. Attending obedience class with his new hoomans will be super for learning commands, furthering his socialization with other dogs and people, and boosting his self-confidence - and should be lots of fun, too. He rides well crated in the car, will definitely let you know when visitors arrive, and will bark at any stranger he sees. His previous owners had him since he was 5 weeks old and he was raised indoors until he was 5 months old, then was an inside/outside pup. He does well with his current foster's children, ages 7 and 11 years, playing and snuggling.
Fatty really is just a big baby who wants to be forever loved. If you've got room in your heart and home for this sweetheart, fill out an application today and his people will get back to you!
