I am a happy, energetic boy who likes to meet everyone. My humans should be experienced and confident in their abilities to handle a dog and be willing to provide me with the boundaries and structure I need. I tend to mouth hands and clothing when I get overly excited so my human/s need to be able to interrupt this in a calm manner so as not to overstimulated me. Any experience with a herding breed would be beneficial.

I would fit in well with humans who are active and who will include me in that lifestyle. Getting rid of my energy will help me be calmer and better behaved in the house. Because I am energetic and I play rough if there are children in the home they need to be at least 16 years old. Because of my strong prey drive no cats please! I am picky about other dogs that I want as friends so it's best that I am the only dog in the home.

A nice big yard or property where I can fetch a ball to burn off some energy would be great.

Since I can be reactive to other dogs my human needs to be attentive to other dogs that we may encounter on walks. I am best suited to more of a rural environment where I dont have to see other dogs on every street corner.

I am really excited to find my match and my forever home so if that's you Quincys my name!
