Other than that, he’s a near perfect dog!<br/><br/>Tyson is a very energetic dog who loves to be around other people and will be your shadow. Tyson is also a perfect balance between being a dog that loves socializing and enjoys a fair amount of exercise while also being able to be a cuddle bug and can easily be crated (if needed) for extended periods of time. He’s also a really smart dog, he’s easily teachable and handles corrections well from his foster brother. <br/><br/>Tyson is the type of dog that is up for anything you want to do. He's a very easy going guy. He's up for any type of adventure. Grab the leash, get in the car and this guy will be the best side kick ever!
