Ivan is a super sweet and energetic little goofball! He is about two years old and weighs around 60lbs. Ivan gets along with every single dog that he meets. He does a good job at respecting his foster sisters space (she’s an older, smaller dog) but would do best in a home where he is the only dog that gets all the attention or has another younger companion. He’s never met a cat and I’m unsure how he would do in a house with cats. He is social and loves the dog park. He does great on car rides. He will just lay down and relax, not car anxious at all. He’s great to run errands with. He is also good with kids. He’s been around small children and was walked daily by two children all summer. Ivan is crated trained and house trained. He does like to chew on his toys, especially his deer antler and ball and rope. He does need to still be supervised as he will try to take household items and also make them his chew toys. He learns quickly and does well with redirection. Ivan is learning basic commands fast, likes sit and come, and has calmed down a lot, especially when it comes to his feeding. He is getting better at not jumping as well. He is the sweetest boy that will give so much love and deserves so much more! Ivan is being fostered near Charlotte, NC. If you're interested in meeting him, please contact your adoption coordinator.
