Meet Axel

Hi everyone! This is the most happy, sweet, fun-loving little man and his name is Axel! He came from a household that wasn't very kind to him but since staying with his foster family he has opened up and is showing us how much love he has to offer. He is 13 months old and about 46 pounds. He has a hearing impairment but still reacts to very loud or high pitched noises and tends to look in the wrong direction! Axel responds so well to training with hand signals and facial expressions! He knows 'come', 'sit', and 'no' and takes his treats gently from your hand. He loves playing rough with his foster sisters (especially with tug of war) and he will need slow introductions to new canine friends. Axel is fully crate trained..to the point where he anticipates when he needs to go in and he does it before I tell him! His favorite thing to do is to chew on the toys scattered around the house, and this boy can chew through a Kong toy easily! Axel would do best with one other dog or as your closest companion! He loves cuddling--day and night. He is also house trained and we are currently working on leash training. He is a huge bundle of joy and is looking for a fantastic hooman to help take care of him!
