Critter Details

Hi peoples! My name is Ruger and I am a 7 month old Great Pyr/Lab mix. I am a large breed puppy weighing 46 pounds and have been microchipped, am up-to-date on all my shots but not yet neutered.My foster mommy says I am amazing and sweet. I love sniffing stuff and investigating wherever my nose takes me. I also love chewing stuff up but stop when foster mommy tells me to (most of the time at least).I get along great with other dogs and just want to play with them. I haven’t been around any cats, livestock or children. Foster mommy says she believes I will be great with kids, but need to be around dog saavy ones because of my size.I am a very smart boy and foster mommy says food motivated. She has been working with me and I know I have to sit down before she feeds me as well as before I get a treat. She says I have a very gentle mouth when taking treats. I don’t know what that means but I think it’s good thing.I can play well by myself but I like chasing after toys or balls when my foster mommy tosses them for me. I don’t bring them back yet though I could probably be motivated too. I also love going on long walks or hikes. I know my name and will come back, when I feel like it.Foster mommy says she wants me to grow up and continue on the path of being the most amazing boy so I will need to be signed up for basic obedience classes.A note from my foster mommy: Ruger is an awesome boy and loves being close to you and snuggling when he's not playing or invesitigating new smells. He will make an awesome dog. Please fill out a Statement of Interest for him at https://alternativehumanesociety.com/statement-of-interest-dog/
