Meet Fernando! A 4 month old Great Pyrenees mix, Fernando is as intelligent as they come. He is thoughtful, and learns commands quick - he has mastered sit, down, touch, and is conquering stay, drop it, and leave it. He absolutely loves other dogs and wants to play as much as possible with them! He is completely house and crate trained. 

Fernando would do best in a home with a PLAYFUL  dog mentor - he would benefit greatly from this. He is very sweet with kids and OLDER KIDS would be best to continue to help direct and teach him as he grows up. He is a Pyrenees through and through - a great explorer that absolutely adores being outside, that is when his bright smile really shines. He seems to like to chase birds and squirrels and might be the same with cats, therefore a cat free home would be best.  Fernando is working on his leash skill and is going great!  He loves to cuddle with humans and dogs, especially in the mornings and evenings. He also loves his independent playtime and loves retreating to his bed or crate with a chew toy. Fernando is currently being fostered in Washington.
