Bogie, male, 1 YO Malinois/Shepherd mix, brindle, 45lb

I was rescued from a canal and eventually ended up at the shelter as a stray. Nobody ever came to claim me, and I landed on the euthanasia list. My foster mom was already saving another dog, but she said there was just something special about me... so one day before I was scheduled to be euthanized, she chose me too.

I'm dog friendly, kid friendly, super smart, and I LOVE to play fetch. I'm crate trained, great off leash, and I'm working hard on my leash skills and potty training when not in crate. I learn really fast, just need someone who will keep teaching me!

I'm young, goofy, athletic, and eager to please.
