9 Month Old Male Dog for Adoption

Springfield MO

Description

Loki is a mutt. He's full of endless energy and as such it's a bit difficult to get him to listen sometimes. I don't recommend adopting him if you have other pets, kids, or lack a fenced-in backyard. He knows how to sit, wait, lay down, shake, roll over, and he loves to give hugs when he's sleepy or really happy. He needs exercise and with the job I'm getting I won't be able to play with him or even take him out much anymore. He has the potential to be a really good dog but I don't have the time to train him. He's very treat motivated. He doesn't bite but he will put his mouth around your hand for attention or whatever. He has all his shots. He's a little moody but I personally love the personality on him. His favourite game is tug of war. He's not very good at it but he'll dig through his toy box to get the tug rope to play. He likes to steal clothes that are left lying around like underwear and socks. He likes to take a toy with him outside. He'll grab something, take it outside to go potty (he's more likely to go quickly if you tell him, "Go potty" and "Go potty go poop"), place the toy down, do his business, then go pick it up to go back inside. If you tell him to get his toy he knows what it means and if you say, "Let's go" he knows to go. I've been working with him on "No pull" as in not pulling the leash and he's okay at it but he gets so excited he doesn't care. He hates having his leash put on him after playing.
