Hello, I am Choney. Man life's been tough these last six months. I was brought to the clinic after being struck by a car. The people claimed I wasn’t theirs and abandoned me in pretty bad shape. I did lose a leg but I am still 'A super friendly despite it all kind of guy', I get it dude ... I may not be the dog for you if giving paw is super important to you (wink wink) but other than that, I am healthy, happy and ready to live my best life! I get along well with other dogs, cats and kids, of all sizes, I am very friendly and have nothing but love to offer to a family. I have heard them say: What a GREAT dog! I am believed to be a Shep (maybe Pyrn mix). I am 1 1/2 years young, already neutered and I go about 60lbs. I do enjoy the cooler weather, cause I have a nice, warm, thick coat. I may not be able to 'work' or roam on a farm, but I do enjoy the outdoors, so if you have a fenced in yard, that would be most lovely for me. Additional notes from my foster momma: Choney is a large luv bug! I also think Choney may be Anatolian Shepherd but it is just a guess. He is soon to be the Home Depot Greeter because every trip we make there, he usually makes friends with every customer (they are going to give him his own vest they said!)! He truly is the happiest guy I have ever met. Loves everyone and everything. He just loves to be with people, but does enjoy the outside and seeing what is happening in the neighborhood. He would prefer to be with someone who can spend a majority of the day with him, since a crate stresses him out. But, he is crate trained and will easily go in it, but he is just not a fan, especially if it is in a 'warmer' area. He likes cool spaces and weather! So, long durations of time in the crate are not ideal for him. He has learned "place" and sleeps in his "place" at night. We are working on "place" when I leave the home so he does not have to go in a crate. Someone with the patience to help him master this skill when left alone is most ideal. He LOVES to be outside (weather permitting of course), so if you have a fenced in yard or a nice deck, he would be in heaven keeping watch over the neighborhood (but it is not required, as he is leash trained). He loves car rides and he'd prefer to go on any adventure with you to be by your side. Choney is such a good dog so you literally CAN take him anywhere! He is potty trained. If you show him the door to go outside, he will let you know simply by sitting in front of it. Because Choney is an amputee (front leg) easy access to the yard and one level living is the most ideal. He can take indoor carpeted steps without any difficulty or hesitation, and he can get in and out of the car easily. He knows his own limitations. Wooden steps (inside or outside a home, like a deck) are not ideal for him. And if I didn't mention it yet ... this boy, right here, well he is a charmer! show less
