Zimmer

-ESTIMATE WEIGHT FULL GROWN: 95 lbs

-ESTIMATED AGE: 5 years old

-KNOWN WITH DOGS: Went to dog parks and is a bit of a rough play companion! Would do well as an only dog, with time to hang with doggy friends on occasion.

-KNOWN WITH CATS: Has lived with a cat! He does not like when the cat is around his food bowl, but otherwise they live well together!

-KNOWN WITH KIDS: Currently shares a home with a toddler, and much prefers his space! New kids in and out would make him a bit anxious, but is sweet with people he knows!

-KNOWN HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING: Zimmer is completely house trained!! Rather then a crate, he is pen trained to stay in a play pen when left there on his own and does great.

-KNOWN LIKES: Hanging with his family, going on walks. He LOVES playing tug of war and fetch

-KNOWN DISLIKES: Being rushed to meet new people in his home!! He likes a gentle greeting and for new people to give them treats. He has allergies as well

Notes from the foster:

Zimmer is a sweet boy looking for a home with no small children, with a family that is ok with his nervousness with new people!

He LOVES playing fetch and tug of war! He's fine around chickens, and has shared a home with a cat. He is very playful and sweet!

He has a pretty thorough medical history, which we can discuss on a screening call.
