History: Asher was purchased as a small puppy and raised in a loving home. However, due to health issues and his young playful nature they made the decision to surrender him to find a more suitable family that can keep up with him and truly meet his needs.

Asher is leash trained, crate trained, house trained, dog door trained, and eager to please.

He is an absolutely amazing young dog who would do best in an active home with a family that can take him on adventures, runs, cycling or any other sort of active job. He loves other dogs and gets along fabulously with every dog we have put him with. He does good with children though he might knock young ones over with his playful excited behavior.

He would do best with a loving family, another active dog in the home, and lots of cuddle time on the couch with his loved ones. Get your application in quickly as this gorgeous boy will be snatched up in a heart beat!!

Neutered, microchipped, and current on all vaccinations
