House & crate-trained.  Playful, doesn't wander, knows sit and come.  Can be told to sit and wait when opening the door so he doesn't bolt or get under foot.  Trained to wait on his food and not eat until he is told the word 'GO.' Great dog, super with other dogs and cats;  they did not have children so just have to do a meeting as he is a happy boy likely to be thrilled with children but we need to make sure.   DOG ADOPTION FEE is $100.
