Feeling like you have the weight of the world on your shoulders? Well, Atlas can
help with that. This little guy at 1 and 1/2 years old will lift that weight with cuddles and kisses and
oodles of love. He is ready to please and has the energy to do so! He loves his toys
and, quite frankly, watching him play easily makes your day. Oh, did I mention that
he's pretty clever, too? It took him all, but 2 seconds to figure out the doggie
door. It's just one of the perks of having established foster siblings . Crates
aren't his favorite thing. You can try but be warned, he will scream in protest.
He prefers to sleep in the pen with his foster siblings. It's like a big, fun
sleepover! The cool part about this is that in the mornings, he follows the pack
right out the back door to take care of morning business. He is also starting to
learn his manners. He pretty much gets 'sit' and that it is not polite yo rush at
your foster siblings' food bowl. 

Atlas has such puppy energy that an ideal home for him would be one with adequate daily supervision. If you days are a little longer, it would be both beneficial and a whole lot of fun for Atlas if there was a slightly older, more established pup, of any size, in the house that would not only teach him the ways of the home but play with him with nearly nonstop energy as well.
