Story
Warden is an absolutely amazing, fantastic, loving companion. He's been with me since he was a puppy and we've had so many amazing adventures together. The ONLY reason I'm finding him a new home is because he will be happier if I do- I now have a young child and no partner. I don't have the time to dedicate to him that he deserves, and he's too large to be around my 1 year old so he's always separated and that's not fair. (He's 105 lbs and can easily knock the baby over without even knowing he did it. It's purely a size issue.) He is a well trained doggo. He knows lots of commands - 'Here', 'Shake', Down, Leave it, Find it (we play scent work games with birch scent in the winter- very fun for all involved), Heel, etc etc. He does very well off leash on walks through the woods and such. BALL is LIFE and he will do ANYTHING for a ball!! He always wants to be with you, doing whatever you are doing. He loves hugs but isn't a bed snuggler. His birthday is May 12, 2018.
