Guppy's Story

We cannot guarantee the breed of any animal in our care and the breed listed is simply our best guess based on observation. <br/><br/>If you're interested in adopting or having a one on one meet and greet, fill out an application by visiting safepawsia.org.<br/><br/>ADOPTION FEE: $300<br/><br/>GOOD WITH CATS: Has not been formally cat tested<br/><br/>GOOD WITH DOGS: Yes<br/><br/>GOOD WITH KIDS: Yes (friendly but kids 10+ recommended)<br/><br/>KNOWN COMMANDS: Sit, Shake, fetch<br/><br/>KNOWN HOUSEBREAKING: No accidents in kennel or around the house<br/><br/>KNOWN KENNELING: Kennels well and is quiet<br/><br/>KNOWN LEASH: Good on a leash<br/><br/>KNOWN LIKES: Guppy loves to play fetch! He has a game with our son where he will fetch a tennis ball and return it to the cup holder on our couch to be thrown again. <br/>He likes going for rides. <br/>He walks like an angel on his leash. <br/>He has started jogging with our teenage daughter each day and loves it. <br/>He likes to play with our younger dog. <br/>He loves to be brushed and has allowed his toe nails to be dremeled. <br/><br/>KNOWN DISLIKES: <br/><br/>FROM THE FOSTER: Guppy is a sweet dog! <br/><br/>He kennels perfectly and has not had any potty accidents here. He keeps his paws on the ground about 90% of the time now, with just a few excited jumps once in awhile. <br/><br/>Guppy knows how to read the room and leaves our older dog alone but knows our younger dog likes to play. He traveled to his foster grandparents for a few days and adjusted well in his new surroundings. He would do well in a variety of homes. He plays well by himself if he needs to, throwing the ball and patting it around for himself.<br/> <br/>We do keep him dragging a long line in the backyard with us, to be able to work on his reaction to our neighbor dogs if they get let out at the same time. He is slowly getting better.
