location: South Haven, IN

Please note we are a foster based rescue; we do not have a building, so there are no "viewing hours". 
Shaun was surrendered to animal control by his family apparently they had too many dogs, he is a sweetheart and is very timid. I don't think anyone ever spent any time with him so he could develop social skills. He of course loves other dogs and certainly needs a dog buddy. 

He needs a quiet household and probably would do better in a home without children. He is in need of potty training, we are working on that. He does fine on a harness and leash although I doubt if he were ever walked. He bonds instantly to his caregiver and just needs time to learn that everyone isn't scary. He does sleep in a crate at night, but would be happy to keep you company in the big bed. 

He hasn't been cat tested but might be fine given his calm demeanor. He is just learning to play with toys and will play chase with his foster sister. He was fascinated by the toy box, something new to him. 

He would probably do better with someone who didn't work eight hours a day due to his need for housetraining. All he needs is patience and time.
