"My name is Redford - I'm a happy, enthusiastic puppy-like terrier boy looking for a family of my very own!

 

I am over a year old, but don't act a day over 6 months old. As I said, I'm very enthusiastic so you don't have to worry about having a lazy dog around. I love to be active, romping around the yard, and thoroughly enjoying my roles of Property Protector and People Greeter! I could probably learn some better manners for my enthusiasm so I can be the proper gentleman I know is in here.

 

I bet I would do really well with what humans call 'brain games' to help with my energy and something fun and interesting to focus on. I am very food motivated (apologies to my foster-sister-pup as I do try to get into her bowl after I'm done mine - it's just so gooood!)...I bet there's something to that when it comes to training me (hint hint) with force free techniques!

 

I have experienced a crate before and did pretty well in it. Might not be the worst thing for the first while as I get adjusted - being a rescue dog, sometimes house rules are hard to understand, and I could use some time to decompress in a new environment. I am a happy-go-lucky dude, but even the happiest human sometimes needs a little unwind time. I like sleeping beside my foster momma in her big comfy bed, and pretty well sleep all night.

 

Because of my energy and zippiness, it might be best if I have a home with either just adults or older kids who are comfortable around dogs like me. As far as other animals - hmm, I haven't met cats yet. Dogs I seem to get along with, but would need proper introductions and supervision for the first bit to be sure.
