Atwater  is an 7 week hound mix at best guess.  He will be a medium dog when grown.  Probably about 45-50 pounds. He will require a fence yard due to his breed.

- This little guy will be your shadow. He loves people, whether he is laying in your lap, standing at your feet or chasing you around the back yard.

He doesn’t know what the word stranger is, he will give kisses to anyone! He is a sweet boy when he wants to be, but sassy when he needs to be.

He enjoys being outside and smelling new things. He loves to snuggle up for a nap, you can always find him in the middle of the puppy pile.

He loves his siblings and other dogs, so he would do best in a home with a friend or two.

He is doing great with potty training, kennel training and working on his manager.  He will need a family that will continue to keep working on mastering these skills.

Atwater is a typical puppy that will require ongoing training.
