A bit about me:
- dogs okay
- cats okay - should be confident around dogs
- kids okay

Hi there, my name is Luka! I am pretty much a rock-star and I know it! I am also adorable as you can see. Ok, maybe I need to work on my humility, but I doubt it. My foster parents love my curious & quirky personality. I often catch them out of the corner of my eye watching in amazement and awe. I think they might be a little jealous of my youthful enthusiasm coupled with carefree abandonment. I am still learning that the world does not revolve around me. Or does it?

I don't do well with skittish cats as my breed has a tendency to get overly excited and chase them. But my foster parents have two cats and they are helping me learn about something called boundaries. They say I still need some work. I love love LOVE playing with hoomans and other dogs too. BUT if they are small and fragile I can be a bit too rambunctious even if they tell me to stop. So it's likely best that I have playmates or live with other dogs that can match my size, energy and enthusiasm.

I am incredibly smart, and did I forget to mention that I am a rock-star? I have certain requests that need to be fulfilled before I give my talents to you. Being a rock-star requires a very scheduled life. And if my needs are not meet then I can be a bit of a diva to get your attention. So please stick to my rules

1) I need to be walked every day, and I love doing zoomies outside. If these needs are not met then I will have to perfect my talents inside by doing hardcore parkour on the furniture, hallways, people, pets, you get the picture.

2) I don't follow fad diets. But to keep my handsome figure, I need to be careful with what I eat otherwise I can have tummy troubles. Also, I can give in to temptations, So please do not leave anything edible laying around or that I can easily access.

3) As I already mentioned I am VERY smart, so I need a lot of games and toys to play with and chew on so I don't get bored. When I'm bored I may find things to nibble on. My foster parents will provide you with my favorites.

4) I LOVE tug-o-war and am getting extremely good at it.

I think that's it for me, so if you think you can match my expectations and give this rock star the home I deserve, email the shelter today!

Note that many dogs do not reach full size until they are about a year and a half old. The weight listed here is the dog's current weight.
