TRAVIS--Courtesy

Male, Terrier mix, 3 years old and 30 pounds

Travis may be young, and on the small side, but for weeks he survived the predators wandering the hills west of Ukiah, so he's highly intelligent, with amazing survival skills.
In one month he has learned:

• What being Housebroken means.
• How to get along with tough-guy cats, who don't run.
• How to leave his foster parent's chickens unmolested.
• How to respect horses and donkeys.
• How to politely ride on the front seat of a pickup truck.
• How to walk on a leash without pulling.

Travis just naturally gets along with other dogs. He can be standoffish with people, until he sizes you up, but once he has faith in you, he's brave, loyal, funny and silly. Travis is a country dog, and MUST have room to run. He isn't a yapper.

*** How he would cope with the spontaneity of small children is an unknown *** Travis has been neutered Had his Rabies shot Has been Microchipped Has been tested for Heartworm and is AOK

There is a $100 Adoption Fee, to help cover his upkeep.
