Meet Jetson!

I really need your help.  You see, I need a family that can throw a ball in the yard for me, and teach me tricks, and give me treats.....I really like treats!  Then I'd like to snuggle up beside you to watch a movie and relax.  Ahhh....that sounds good.

I am an easy going guy who really just wants a place to call home.

AN UPDATE FROM HIS FOSTER MOM:

JETSON DOES NOT DO:

     DRINK OUT OF THE TOLIET,NO GARBAGE STEALING,NO STEALING FOOD OFF THE COUNTER(TESTED MANY TIMES).

     CHEWING OF ANYTHING EXCEPT HIS TOYS.

     FIGHT WITH OTHER DOG ,NO ALFA BEHAVIOR AND ALWAYS SHOWS HIS TUMMY TO HER. SAYING LETS PLAY. IS VERY PUPPY WHEN PLAYING.

     JUMPING ON FURNITURE-NO.

     PROBLEM TRAVELING WITH OR WITHOUT ANOTHER DOG AND EASY TO TRUST IN THE CAR IF LEFT ALONE(SHORT TIME)

     PROBLEM GETTING IN THE CAR-JUMPS RIGHT IN -LETS GO!!!!

     SLEEPS NEXT TO US IN THE BEDROOM GREAT AND ALONG NEXT TO OTHER DOG-NO POTTY MISTAKES.

     BARKING-DOESNT WHEN SOMEONES AT THE DOOR AND WE DONT DRAW ATTENTION WHEN THE DOOR IS BEING OPENED.

     ATTACK OUR CHILDREN -VERY GOOD AND TRUSTING.

     GO CRAZY IF LEFT ALONE IN LAUNDRY ROOM WHEN WERE OUT-
WE LEAVE ON LIGHT , DRINK AND FOOD. IN MINUTES CALMS DOWN AND GOES TO SLEEP.-NO POTTY MISTAKES.



WHAT WE HAVE BEEN DOING WITH JETSON:

     WHEN TAKING A TREAT I TELL HIM TO BE GENTAL AND HE IS.

     WHEN COMING TO THE DOOR JETSON IS NOT GREETED WITH A OVERLEY HAPPY VOICE OR IS PRAISED TO SEE HIM. ONLY UNTIL WE ARE SETTLED IN THEN WE GIVE HIM KISSES. DONT WANT HIM TO BE TAUGHT HE CAN JUMP ALL OVER US ALL THE TIME.

     GOING OUTSIDE HE ASKED TO SIT AND WAIT FOR THE 5' LEASH TO BE PUT ON AND HE DOES. THEN I GO OUT THE DOOR FIRST-TO SHOW IM IN CHARGE.LOVES GOING OUTSIDE!!!

     ON THE LEASH STILL SOMETIMES PULLS, WE PULL HIM BACK SAYING HES NOT INCHARGE. HE LOOKS UP AND WAITS -WHERE DO WE GO NEXT. I BELIEVE HE WOULD BE GREAT TAKING HIM FOR WALKS IN THE PARKS. JUST NEEDS TO BE REMINDED WHO IS INCHARGE. THEN HE UNDERSTANDS/GIVES UP AND THENS HAPPY!!!

     THEN TIME FOR US TO GO INSIDE I TELL HIM INSIDE JETSON AND HE KNOW ITS TIME. AND HE IS VERY HAPPY TO GO INSIDE AND STAY THERE. HES NOT LIKE OTHER DOGS THAT SIT IN FRONT OF WINDOWS OR DOGS AND WHINES TO GO OUT.

     BUT IF SERVE DOOR IS OPEN AND UNLEASHED HE WILL BOLT AND FORGETS HOW NICE HE HAS IT HERE(SMILE).

     WE ARE STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH HIM REMEMBERING HIS NAME SO WE JUST LOOK AT HIM IN HIS EYES AND SAY YES THATS YOU AND THIS IS WHAT WERE SAYING.

     WERE OUTSIDE WORKING ON HIS RUNNING .PUTTING A 20' LEASH ON HIM AND GOING TO OUR FIELD. TAKING ALOT OF TIME WITH THIS ISSUE AND THERES GOOD DAYS AND BAD-OF COURSE. IN HIS EYES THERE STILL IS A GREAT WANTING TO RUN AWAY. WE THNK ITS JUST IN HIS BLOOD AND THATS OK- BUT HE NEEDS A FENCE.

     WE ARE NOT GIVING UP ON THE RUNNING , WE ARE JUST WORKING WITH HIM AND PLAYING WITH HIM ALOT. TO SHOW HIM HE IS LOVED AND CAN BE LOVED BY EVERYONE. HE WOULD BE GREAT FOR A FAMILY OR JUST A SINGLE PERSON. JUST WANTS TO BE TOUCHED AND WILL FOLLOW YOU ANYWHERE IN THE HOUSE. AND IF YOU NEED SOMEONE TO TALK TO JETSON IS THERE, RIGHT AT YOUR FEET TO LISTEN AND WARM THEM UP!!!!!!

     FOR BEING A LAB PUPPY 80% OF THE TIME HE IS SO MELLOW 15% ITS TOY TIME(SMILE).
