Pointer - Medium - Young - Male - Dog - Taps
Description
* { font:inherit; } Meet Taps! He doesn't bark much at all, he gets along very well with other dogs and loves to find dogs that will play with him.  He behaves well at the off leash dog park and will ignore humans especially if he still wants to play.  :)  He likes to meet people on his terms.  Once he gets to know you, he will be your best friend. He is just learning basic commands like sit,lay down,stay ect.... I think he would do really well with training but needs to do things slowly as he develops trust with you.  He was very very shy when he first got to his foster home, but his personality has been coming out over the last month. He is playful and loving.  Is starting to like to chase the ball and chew on nyla bones.  He LOVES the kong w/peanut butter.  He does not beg for people food.  He is also very shy about accepting treats. This is all part of his trusting us humans.He's doing better with the potty training.   He is free in the house pretty much all of the time. At night he is just starting to come up into bed to get some pets then goes down to his own dog bed.  He is respectful of baby gates and therefore doesn't need to be crated.  He doesn't really like his crate.   I do feed him in his kennel w/the door open and he willingly goes in there to eat and occasionally will sleep in there at night with the door open as it is in the bedroom with me.  For the most part he likes his bed at night, my bed during the day or the couch :) I think he would love to have a yard to run around in or at least go for walks or runs.  He loves to run at the dog park and is pretty fast.  He does pull on a leash but I am use to large labs so compared to them he is a breeze!!!  Won't you help this boy go home for good??Please feel free to fill out an ADOPTION APPLICATION on our main website, www.midwestanimalrescue.org, by clicking on the Form/Applications link under Website Features.Thank You!   or
