Hi, I’m Beau, a 6-year-old super-sized german shorthaired pointer. Don’t let my size fool you; I’m a gentle giant who is well-mannered, affectionate, and cheerful. I’m friendly to all dogs, but I have never met a cat. I know how to sit, stay, lie down, and heel. I would benefit from more leash training, but I am trained using only the tone function on a static collar. I have moderate energy and would require daily walks or fetch in the backyard. I am housetrained and crate trained, but I prefer to be out and about with my humans instead of being crated. At night, I sleep in a dog bed next to my foster parents’ bed. I love to cuddle with my humans on the couch binge watch Netflix. I like children of all ages, but I become irritated if they touch or pull on my tail. I do not mind if adults touch my tail because I know they will not hurt me. I require a fence as I like to chase small animals, especially squirrels, and I will not listen when I am chasing prey. I love taking car rides and spending time with my humans. I am respectful of furniture and items that belong to my humans. Because I am a male, I may mark items around the house, but I stop after a few days when I am comfortable in my surroundings. I do not jump on people or counters, but my nose and chin can easily reach the countertops as I walk by! I am looking for someone who will be my buddy and love me as much as I love them. If you’re interested in meeting me, please complete the adoption application!
