Update 12/2/23: Looking for a new best pal for you and your dog(s)? Brisket could be your perfect choice! Just six months old, this handsome, spunky guy absolutely loves playing with his foster sisters, teasing them by taking their toys or romping and wrestling with them in the snow. And while he is energetic, he also has a solid down switch, and enjoys chewing on a favorite bone or just cozying up on his favorite dog bed. He is still a bit wary of new people, but it doesn’t take him long to lick their hand and approach them. Brisket is a total love-bug, and frequently comes running for pets and caresses. He adores being cuddled and just hanging out close to his foster parents. Outside, when not playing with his sisters, he is playing tug with his foster mom and dad, learning to chase balls or on the sniff, searching out mice or interesting scents in the ground. He may be a good candidate for scent work! Brisket is fantastic with kids; he just adores them! He has been tested once with neighborhood cats, and showed some mild chase interest in one who ran, and was completely bored with the one who just sat and looked at him, so it is very likely that he can be in a home with dog savvy cats with a bit of training. He absolutely loves his play with other dogs, and will likely do best with another playful dog in the household. Brisket is house-broken and crate trained. During the day he is fine in his crate with a treat-filled kong or big bone for up to 2.5 to 3 hours during the day. But he is a puppy, and has shown anxiety when crated too long due to his past, so staying in his crate all day is not an option for him. He sleeps quietly in his crate at night for 8-9 hours, usually without a potty break, and whimpers softly if he needs to go outside to potty. He knows the basic commands of “sit” “down” and “come,” with treat rewards and is improving in his overall recall and ability to “leave it.” Being a puppy, does chew on objects other than his toys. He is not excessive in his chewing, but is drawn to socks and material, occasionally swallowing some, so he needs to be in a house with someone who is home to care for and watch him, other than periodic crating, until he matures out of the puppy chewing stage. He is already getting better with this though, but needs more time. Ready for a dog with the perfect blend of energy, intelligence and affectionate nature? Brisket may be your perfect pup!
