You don't have to ask Mackerel (45 lbs) to say 'cheese' twice to catch that sweet grin of his! Brought to us as an owner surrender due to a move, he's becoming well known for being super playful with friends, and committed to forming strong bonds with those that he's familiar with. At just a little over four years old, he's still got a lot of pep in his steps, so we expect that he'll do well with a dog who can meet him on that same level. Mackerel is very active and loves to go on walks or short to mid distance runs. He enjoys wide open spaces and chasing squirrels. Mackerel loves company and would be great in a house where one of the owners works from home. He is a very cuddly dog and will likely crawl into your lap given the chance. He's been friendly enough with cats in his previous home, and while he's never lived with children, he's demonstrated genuine curiosity for them whenever he's run into them.
