Ansel will sit, stay, lay down, come, go, back up, and shake (as in after a bath). He likes to be left alone when he eats. Ansel needs to be in a small room or a crate when left at home alone. He loves to take walks or hike every day! He is a snuggler and likes lots of your attention. He is fixed. Ansel is 8 years old and is very mellow. He barks when someone is at the front door. Ansel is very good when he needs his ears cleaned, baths, and getting his nails clipped (he loves the attention!) Most of all he is very sweet! He gets along with other dogs. The ideal home for Ansel would be active owners that have time for him and maybe another dog!
