Custer's Story

Custer can be the sweetest boy, but he does have a nipping problem that we are working on. The nipping is not from aggression. He just nips because he wants attention and is anxious. He takes some medication to help calm him down, which has made a huge difference. A large enclosed yard with plenty of toys would be perfect for him! A home with no small children would be best until the nipping gets under control. He needs a home with patience and someone who is willing to work with him.
