Dakota is a four-year-old Lab mix who came to us in spring of 2021 as a surrender. He was lacking boundaries and socialization skills. Early on in his stay with us, he had his challenges trusting humans. Dakota has been working on obedience training to improve his confidence and self-esteem. He is a smart guy and receptive to training. He has benefited with desensitizing training to help build trust. Dakota has shown some great improvement. He is excited to see staff and looks forward to his play time as well as training exercises. He loves massages, including T-touch therapy. He enjoys car rides and outings to the state park for hikes. We feel he will do best as an only dog and with an owner who has a good understanding into dog behavior.
