In the shelter’s words

MEET PUDGE!!! This big boy is a ton of love!!! He is smart and well behaved~ He's already housebroken, and kennel trained. Pudge is a gentle pup and mild mannered. Pudge walks well on a leash! A good walk on a leash, some play in the backyard, or even some hiking would be perfect for this pup. He loves to have pets, but he's not a "needy" dog that needs to be pet ALL day long like some. Pudge listens well and learns new things quickly, so he can easily learn all kinds of new tricks! He already knows his basic obedience commands, but would love to learn some new specialty tricks! CHECK OUT VIDEO OF PUDGE!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaNuLxsOYkg He does like toys, so lots of Kongs and Nylabones would be great to keep him busy when you're not home. He absolutely LOVES a game of fetch, and his favorite toy is his football. He does enjoy the water, but is not a fan of baths, so we're unsure if he'd be a water/swim dog. A good sprinkler or hose would be plenty of fun! He is a medium energy boy, so he will still need a normal amount of exercise each day. Pudge can be a little shy when first getting to know someone new, but a little bit of sweet talk, and he is your new best friend! This goofy, silly boy is a bit of a baby, and younger kids are still too scary, so he will need a No Kid home. Older kids could be o.k. (Teen+). He also does not like other dogs, or cats, so he'll need to be the only animal in the house.
