Spike is a pup still working on housetraining, but because he is crate trained, we feel he will pick it up quickly. He is high energy and would benefit from another dog in the home to teach him manners. He is not yet neutered, and is working on walking on a leash. He gets so excited when he sees a volunteering coming to his kennel run, and bearing a leash! He is a problem solver as far as training, but needs time to focus, and is having a hard time at the shelter. If you adopt, we will happily hook you up with a trainer to give you some ideas on how you can help him adapt.  This pet has been posted by Friends of Campbell County Animal Control, Rustburg, VA.
