Shepherd and Shar Pei Dogs Available for Adoption in Cloquet, Minnesota

This guy is 64 lbs of sweet, his name is Rubble, I guess that is a cartoon character. He was with the same family from three months to 4 years old. At one time they had four dogs! He was raised with their daughter from the time she was four to eight years old. His family was so busy he was just left him home alone too much. He is crate trained but is so good around the house we only kennel him when we are gone. He is a gentle dog and needs a family that appreciates that side of him. His biggest faults are dripping on the floor after drinking and putting his head on your lap with those drips. He is Pittie, Bulldog and AmStaffy but the small percentage of Sharpei shows in his face. His face is the best.
