Even though I came from a place that they call a puppy mill, every one is very impressed when they meet me because I am so friendly and not scared of humans. 

I quickly learned about going through a door to get outside and it is great to go out in a big yard and run around.  I think these humans want me to go out there to do my business so I try to remember to always do that.  And I love to go outside especially if there are other dogs out there that like to play.  I also have lots of fun with these doggie toys.  Some of them even make squeaky noises when I bite on them and it is so much fun to shake them and run around with them in my mouth – I even sometimes can sneak them outside and then the other dogs will chase me to try to get them!  This is a blast!

Out in the yard, there are these ropes that are up high and sometimes there are things hanging on them.  If I jump really high, I can usually grab one of them and try to pull them off.  I think it is a great toy but if the humans see me do it, they try to make me stop.  What’s the deal?  They put them out here just about in my reach so I have to try to get them!  Sometimes I just don’t get these guys!

When the humans go away, they put me in a crate but I don’t really mind because I know they won’t be gone for too long and when they come back, they will let me out to go into the big yard so I don’t have to do my business in the crate anymore!

After I first got here, one of my eyes wasn’t doing too good and eventually I had to have it taken out.  I hardly even noticed though because I usually am just too busy having fun and playing.

This is a great new life and I would love to learn more about it in a nice new home.  Wouldn’t you like to help teach me what the life of a dog should be as a happy and loved pet?  Fill out an application for me then!  Thanks!

This dog is fostered in Holland, MI.
