Achilles

Achilles is a 5 year bundle of squishy love. He is very docile and non-reactive around other dogs big or small, male or female. Shows no signs of food aggression or resource guarding. He can be trusted in the house, but when we his foster is not home he is confined to a separate room (no need to crate him, but he's fine in a crate as well). He is not destructive. He's very curious and follows us everywhere and just wants to be attached to us. If you are getting some ice..he comes running. Achilles runs and plays with his foster brother and sister. His favorite toys are a mostly deflated soccer ball and a big bucket he found. The vet said he was so easy and just stood there and let them draw blood and give him an exam. They have a resident cat he walked up to say hello to and didn't do anything beyond sniffing. Everyone he meets falls in love with this squishy boy. He has the greatest expressions and will "talk" to you when he wants something (food, go outside). Doesn't bark when seeing neighbors or walking dogs or if anyone comes to the door. We are working on his leash manners, but that is slow going. He wants to lead and pull to meet everyone ! He is good with kids, rides great in the car and even likes the water! He will climb right in the bath tub for a bath! Achilles is being fostered in Mooresville NC.
