"Metro"

This dog has been adopted but has not yet completed the two week "trial period" in it's new home. We are no long accepting applications or inquiries. Should the placement prove to be a poor fit for dog and/or family, he/she will be moved to the AVAILABLE section on the Available Dogs page.

• 2/18/01 - Metro is great with other dogs and he's also OK with cats. He doesn't really know what to make of the boxer's very vocal and "boxing" play but if he gets a little timid, he runs to me and hides between my legs (very cute). He's starting to "box" and "talk" when he plays almost as if he thinks he's a boxer :) He is not completely housebroken, but as long as he is let out on a regular basis, he is fine. He is crate trained, but may whine for a couple of seconds when he first goes in. He LOVES to lie on your lap if you're sitting on the floor so you can rub his belly. He will immediately roll over onto his back so that you get the hint ;) Metro could definitely use some leash work though he's getting better and I think its because he's getting out some energy by playing with the other dogs. He likes to counter surf, as well, but he really responds well to commands even though he has no clue what I'm saying ("off", "leave it", "no"). He does know "sit", but is more likely to do it when he knows you have a treat/reward in your hand. Metro is a very sweet, friendly and outgoing dog.
  
• 2/2/01 - Metro is a 6 month old male Lab mix. He is full of energy and needs a place to run around. Fenced in yard and someone who has lots of time to work with him. I will know more after he is in his foster home. Check for updates.

  If you are interested in giving Metro a great new home, please complete an online application and email the rescue group listed below.
