My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Dusty is super lovable and active. He is calm enough to not require a lot of exercise, but he can keep up with an active family too. He loves tug of war and chasing 4 wheelers. He has been trained around chickens, and stays close when we're doing chores off leash. He has done well in 2 rounds of obedience classes and loves learning new things.

He does well with our small dog and my parents cat, but doesn't get along well with our other large dogs. He's nervous around our toddler because of the unpredictability, so he should be ok around older kids.
