Hi, my name is Fluffer Nutter! Here is what would work best for me in my new home:

-Personality: HIGH ENERGY/ACTIVE, playful, a bit mischievous, adventure buddy
-Can Live with Kids: Due to handling sensitivities, I can only live with teens ages 16+
-Can Live with Cats: No - due to the potential for high prey drive
-Can Live with Dogs: Could potentially live with another rough/rowdy player who is tolerant of my rude behavior pending an initial introduction here at the shelter. I would not be a good match for any dogs who are dog-selective or cannot handle rude/rough play. No small dogs. 
-Can do Apartment Living: Absolutely not, I was likely an outdoor-only dog in my previous home and would NOT do well in apartments, condos, or trailers. Would do best in a home with acreage and a large fenced yard. 
-Potty Trained: Unknown
-Bite History: No
-Positive Reward Based Obedience Classes Required: Yes, one to three private lessons depending on adopter experience
-Energy Level: VERY VERY HIGH!!!!
-Needs Medical Procedure Before Going Home: Yes, a neuter / MC

Additional Information: Fluffer Nutter is an active dog looking for an active person/family to match his energy level! This floofy guy will need LOTS of physical exercise as well as mental stimulation, or else its pretty likely that he will channel all that energy into something destructive. Fluffer Nutter came to us as a stray, but it appears he was likely an outdoor-only dog in his previous home. Its pretty clear Fluffer Nutter hasnt had much training and was probably left to his own devices prior to his arrival here at the shelter. He will need to go into a home with owners who are patient and willing to be consistent with positive reinforcement based training. Luckily hes a smart boy, which will hopefully be beneficial during training. We do not recommend adopting Fluffer Nutter if you work long hours and wont be home for most of the day - he has far too much energy and will need more interaction/activity than the average dog. If youd like to make this sweet boy your new adventure buddy, the first step is filling out an adoption application.
