Hello DROH! My name is Dilton Dooley and I am so glad to be out of the shelter! I am a goofy, happy-go-lucky guy with lots of energy. My foster Dad has me on a training regimen that wears me out though. I do recover quickly, however! I'm learning to walk calmly on a leash, but still enjoy barking at people, other dogs and squirrels. I've  even  convinced my foster brother to misbehave  with  me! Dad makes us sit quietly until we are back in control...who knew walking could be so much work?
I'm a good eater and LOVE the treats when I do as I'm told. I would still prefer to jump up for treats instead of "sit", but I'm trying to learn! I'm not too crazy about being  kenneled ...it reminds me too much of being cooped up in the shelter. I do settle down after a bit and sleep through the night. I enjoy bugging my foster brother and think it's fun to steal his toys from him. I think it's good for him to learn to share, don't you?
As you can tell I enjoy living the DROH life, but would prefer to jump and act silly with my own family. I'm trying to learn to do my business outside so I can be praised all the time by you! If you'd like to finish my education, please fill out an application and let's meet!
