Meet Portland!

Portland came to Minneapolis from Texas recently and has adjusted well to the climate change. He is house trained and loves to play, as any young dog would. He is good on a leash and loves to go for walks.

Portland is a bit shy when first meeting people, but warms up quickly once he gets comfortable. He is a little hesitant to going in and out of doorways for the first few times, but is learning they are okay as he goes through them more and more. 

Portland gets along with other dogs. His foster dad has 4 dogs of his own and, while they tend to be a bit prudish and set in their ways, he is continually urging them to play with him. 

Portland has been given a few toys, well, old socks tied into knots, and they keep him occupied when he is wanting something to play with. Being a young guy, he is prone to chewing still so will need some more training on this but he does know what the word "no" and stops chewing .

Portland is left in a crate when home alone and is not too fond of it, but is slowly adjusting to it especially with treats.   

Portland is learning to walk on a leash and is getting the hang of it.  There are lots of kids in the park too now that the weather has been getting nicer and he loves to play with them too.

Portland currently has Demodex (which is non contagious). It is being treated with the proper medication so that it heals.  He has a few bare spots and thinning hair on his back legs but now that he is receiving the care he needs to heal, he is feeling better.  In a few months’ time he should be completely better. 

If you are looking for a young dog with a lot of energy and love to give, he is the dog for you!
