Foster Home Feedback
1/26/25 Foster Feedback: Burger is doing great. He is a loving dog that just wants to be near you and touch you. He will come when called, heels very well, can sit when told, and we’re working on the stay portion. He gets along well with my dog and anybody he encounters. He loves his toys and will play catch for as long as you want to throw the ball. He is house-trained and does not mind the kennel. I leave him out when I'm gone, and he mostly lies on the couch or bed or just hangs out, stretched out on the floor. Burger doesn't seem to bother anything around the house, including the animal mounts that we have. He loves the snow and will roll in it and plow around on his head. He's a little goofy that way!
Burger does have some habits that I have noticed. I figured out that the one side of the yard with the 4' fence is a little low as climbing over it is not a big challenge for him. He's done it a couple of times, but he comes to you when you get to him, so he doesn't run. He’s just curious about the neighbors, I guess. I take him out to potty on a leash now to avoid this, but he's sort of a private guy, so it takes a couple of tries to get it done. On the good side, he's got a bladder that never ends, so, he doesn't have accidents in the house. Burger has also figured out how to slip his collar but has only done it once. He is tall enough to surf the counters but doesn't take anything, just likes to look and see what's there or outside the window.
Burger just loves to be petted and hugged. He melts into you and just can't get enough of it. He really wants to play with my dog, but for some reason, mine is being a snob. He has shown no aggression even when my little twerp growls at him. He would do great with another dog to play with. Overall, he is a calm and pretty low-maintenance dog!
** Burger is Lyme positive. This is a tick-borne illness, and he is currently being treated with Doxycycline.
