Forest is a charming and lovable 5 year old terrier mix. Forest is a big bundle of love. He is a well-mannered, fun-loving, and affectionate dog who thrives on human companionship. When he’s inside, he’s very mellow and low-key, but he’s an energetic fellow outside. He loves chasing balls and basking in the sun in the backyard or on the deck with a big bowl of water nearby. He is great on the leash and loves long walks and enjoys seeing other people and dogs, with whom he is generally indifferent and non-reactive; however, he can be selective with the dogs that he likes and would be best as an only dog in the home.
**Forest has recently graduated from the 12-week Puppies 4 Parole program through the Missouri Dept of Corrections. During his training, he mastered all the basic commands and is a well-behaved canine citizen ready to become a member of your family.**
