He's never bitten anyone but he has growled. <br/><br/>He is crate trained and mostly house broke.<br/><br/>Currently he's not crazy about the staff putting a leash over his head but is calming down.<br/> <br/>His best home has a fenced yard and no small children. He would thrive in an experienced home that is willing to take him to training. <br/><br/>If you are looking for a new best friend please complete our application!<br/><br/>https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeHtPk0czmxDg1XKtAAzVtO52_dHJgFA38I56_1PZWZEj7CCw/viewform?fbclid=IwY2xjawQgSsBleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFvMDFPYjBpZmVIeU9nZ0hPc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHrcyMFXUlOh1l-ml7ejg47LGn_7meMMFLQmKP1asQvMzbg05EOzkPsWQ_twM_aem_sggc97A3_LRZ8OERB3bgoQ&pli=1
