Commander Salamander

My story

What my friends at OHS say about me:Hi! I'm Commander Salamander, a spunky, food-loving, treat ball enthusiast with a personality as big as my name. I really love people especially those familiar with canine body language! I'm a social boy who loves hanging out with my people. If you've got a good understanding of dog behavior, I think we'll hit it off even more. I can pull while I'm out on walks because, well, I've got places to go!I'm one talkative guy. Whether I'm asking for belly rubs, treats or just giving you my signature head tilt, you'll always know what I'm thinking! I'm a smarty-pants, and I'm food-motivated, so training should be a fun adventure for us!Escape Artist: I have a history of trying to escape doors, fences, and leashes. I will need supervision when outdoors.Shy and Nervous: New people, surroundings and touch can make me a little nervous. I like to take things slow, so I'd do best in a calm, quiet environment where I can adjust to my new life at my own pace.High Energy: I've got loads of energy and will need an active home that can keep up with me. I can become easily frustrated if my energy and exercise needs are not met. Long walks, playtime, and some mental stimulation will be a must! I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted - I have made lots of dog friends and might do well with a dog in the home!I have been diagnosed with dental disease which means I may need dental cleanings or extractions in the future.The type of home I'm looking for:I lived with toddlers and babies in my last home.It could be with you!
