FOSTER UPDATE 3-3-16:  Ernest is a ball of energy.  He loves to be around people and other dogs as much as possible.  He has a sweet spirit and makes me laugh on a daily basis.  He knows how to get what he wants, and that is food!  He loves to eat, and you must be careful with leaving anything out. 

Ernest is deaf, and I am currently working with him and also teaching him sign language. He knows several commands now, and he is at the perfect stage for learning.  He is potty trained and never has had an accident in the house.  He is also crate trained and stays in the crate while I am away. He is still young, so has moments where he doesn't follow commands.  But that is getting better every day!

Again, he is very active and needs lots of exercising. If you are a runner or have other dogs, that is a huge plus.  He has NEVER been aggressive.   I have brought him to the dog park on several occasions, and he has never acted in aggression towards other dogs or people.    "Ernie" has so much love to give and needs a forever home!  He is unique and beautiful on the inside and out. Please consider him in your search for the perfect companion.
