He previously lived with another large dog successfully and during his shelter playgroup evaluation, he offered polite greetings and quickly settled into soft play with the other dogs. Buck could be a wonderful addition to a multi-dog home—ask shelter staff about scheduling a meet-and-greet with your resident dogs!His former owner also described him as playful with cats.
