Jasper Retriever Mix Salt Lake City, UT

Say hello to Jasper, a 2-year-old cuddle bug...er, retriever mix...who just loves to be by his people and dog buddies. Jasper is a high-energy guy looking for a high-energy lifestyle filled with human and canine friends to run and play with. He's like a goofy toddler whose excitement for life is contagious. And like a toddler, Jasper needs structure, routine and opportunities to learn how to be the best version of himself. He's also motivated by snacks, which makes training time that much easier! Jasper is already potty trained and knows how to use a dog door, but can use continued training on walking well on a leash and not containing his excitement when he sees new people and things. Jasper loves to be outside, preferring even to take his naps outdoors on a comfy dog cot. When he's inside, Jasper loves to watch the world outside the front window, though he does bark at loud noises so apartment living would not be a good fit for him. Jasper's ideal home is with an active family, preferably with another social dog and perhaps some older children to run and play with. If you're willing to put in the time to teach Jasper, he's willing to give you all of his loyalty, love and affection in return! (Oh, did we mention he gives the best hugs?)
