Additional Details:

Strider is a beautiful black, shiny boy that raced at 71lbs. He is very young and just celebrated his 2nd birthday Dec 10th. Strider is a bit shy at first and would try to hide his head under someone's arm when he was nervous. He started following his foster family everywhere after only a couple of days and just melts for a tummy scratch. Strider is very sensitive to correction, just a stern word and he stops doing what he is doing. He is home acclimated and well behaved so rarely does anything wrong though. Strider potties well on leash so doesn't require a home with a fenced yard if his family is willing to leash walk him. He is good on leash and can do steps very well. He plays nicely with other dogs large and small, and is fine with cats. Strider even lived with birds so should be find with just about any small critters. He is a very loving, devoted boy once he warms up, although he is initially a little shy about approaching strangers. He prefers women over men, but will warm up to men too with a little time. Strider has shown some separation anxiety when left totally alone, so would do best in a home with at least one other dog for company. Since he sometimes cries when left alone in his crate, he would not be a good dog for apartment or townhome living. Strider is a great guy with a lot of love to give. He is young, so is a playful, fun guy.

Strider was adopted January 17th of 2012 and was called Grendel. He had a long happy life and always greeted his dad at the door. Grendel crossed the bridge in early 2022 at the age of 12 suddenly of unknown causes. He will be missed by his family.
