Poor Petey was abandoned by his family and dumped in a high-kill shelter. Petey's searching for that 15 year permanent family plan. He loves people & is good with other dogs and cats. Petey would like an active home that appreciates his youthful spirit. His best friend is an alpha female chocolate Lab Retriever. Petey goes every morning to Riverside Park and joins the pack of dogs and their owners for a walk by the river where they play, exercise and socialize. While Petey has a lot of play drive, he also likes to snuggle on his bed and watch a movie. He's crate trained for his down time and has the right structure and stamina to be your reliable jogging buddy. Petey's an amazingly beautiful and majestic-looking dog, with a well-proportioned body and hazel eyes. His coat is a red with white. He knows the "sit" and "off" commands and has a good recall. Petey needs to be exercise daily in the AM. He needs a dog savvy guardian that takes him to the park in the morning to exercise and play time. Petey would love a sister dog (alphas are welcome!) and a fenced yard. Petey is a dog for someone wishing to give love to a needy animal AND who will enjoy obedience training him and understands the value of being a good pack leader. In return, who ever adopts Petey will have a best friend and a loyal companion. Petey is approx 18 months and 55 pounds, neutered, UTD on vaccines, and microchipped. He’s housetrained and crate trained. Forget-me-not says Petey!
