Good with other dogs - yes
Good with cats - unknown
House trained - he's only been with us a few days but so far so good

Hi! My name is Patrick, and I love to cuddle. Even though they say I'm 9 months old, I still feel very much like a puppy. I enjoy playing with toys, and playing with my dog and human foster family. And though I'm quite active, sometimes I like to just laze in the sun surrounded by my toys.


Because I'm still young, I'm not completely coordinated yet. I really do like children, but I'm a bit too wild for the under 8 crowd.


They're home-schooling me here. I'm working on potty training (got a B on my last report card, so I'm getting there), sitting, staying, coming when called and walking politely on a leash. Part of my training involves a crate. I don't like that part much, but I gather it has something to do with keeping me out of trouble, and I don't really like to be in trouble, and I don't always know how to avoid it yet. I am still a puppy.


Since I am very active, I need a fenced yard to run in. I would really love a f
amily that enjoys outdoor activities, as I'm sure I could add lots of fun to out
tings.
