Story
I received Keith from my uncle who were both German Shepherds, I am not 100% sure if they were both purebred. Keith is 2 years old and will be 3 years in December. He's a very intelligent dog and picks up on tricks and commands rather quickly. As a high temperament breed, he needs room to run around. I currently take him to the park to play fetch and he loves it. Keith grew up with another dog, but is very protective of his owner when other dogs are around. He does not like cats at all and enjoys chasing squirrels up trees. He's a very loyal companion and understands simple commands such as sit, come, and lay down.

Norfolk Terrier Terrier (Unknown Type, Small)

Grand Rapids, MI
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Chase is a 5 year old Norfolk Terrier mix that is full of energy. We like to say that Chase has no boundries and prefers to be touching his humans as much as possible. He really loves to snuggle up on the couch at the end of a day and get all the belly scratching he can. Chase is potty trained and crate trained, but he prefers to sleep with his humans in bed at night. He is a world-class snuggler so no one seems to mind! Chase is good with other dogs, currently living with our other one (Chihuahua mix) and children. We have never had cats, so I am not sure what he would do. He is medium energy, mostly chill. He loves to be outside, we have had best success with a fenced yard because he has been now to chase a bunny or squirrel in the yard. This is a hard transition for our family, but we think it will be best for Chase in the long run. We have two toddlers and a teenager at home and we just are not spending the time with Chase that he really needs. Thanks for your interest!
