My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Kruger is an excited, happy guy! He's eager to find a new home where he'll have space to run and play. He has lived with another dog previously, but he may be slow to make new friends he doesn't know.
Volunteers say "I took Kruger for a Pup Cup at Starbucks and then we hung out at home for a bit! He is great with new people and matches the energy of the people around him. He loves to play fetch, but also enjoys just lounging around and snuggling! He is medium energy and has a mild temperament, so I would imagine he would fit in with any home. Unsure about his behavior with other dogs as we did not encounter any other dogs today."
"Kruger is such a sweet and well behaved boy! I drove him to my apartment and we walked around my neighborhood today. He sat so nice in the car and was so sweet and calm! He walks super well on the leash and stays right next to you except for when there's good grass to sniff. He did not react to other dogs or pull on the leash when he saw dogs or squirrels. He knows how to sit and I even got him to lay down a few times with treats. We also sat inside for a while and he loves to cuddle. He sniffed all of my cats things and seemed very calm. I think he would be perfect for an active person who needs a friendly companion."
"Met and walked with Kruger today and he was a delight. So easy on leash, loves the water, very affectionate and playful. He needs some training not to jump on folks, but with a little time he would eagerly learn anything taught to him. He'd probably love to have his very own kiddy pool too!"
