We met Pete about 8 years ago when we volunteered for local shelter that euthanized with a gas chamber. They were full and Pete was next in line. We worked to try to secure rescue, but ultimately an individual took Pete home. They recently lost that home and Pete was not in the plans to go to the next location.

Pete is a super happy dog. He can still be energetic for his age ( 9-10 ish) but also enjoys a good nap in the sunshine. He is doing well with other dogs. He requires a fenced yard and a strong/patient owner as he can be mouthy/nippish when excited and tug at the leash. He's very good about staying in a fence and is not destructive in the house. He is house trained and crates well. He loves riding in a car or on a side by side. 

We were saddened to learn that Pete did not end up these last 8 years with the perfect life and circumstances, but he is ever smiling and hopeful that his last years will be spent as a loved family pet with a person who wants to give him what he's missed out on.
