Notes from Albuquerque Animal Services - Westside

Nacho is a 4-year-old male German Shepherd mix who is a perfect combination of good manners, playful antics, and just the right amount of independence. He is treat motivated, sits beautifully, and takes treats so gently you might forget you're dealing with a German Shepherd mix and not a polite little gentleman at a fancy dinner party. Nacho likes toys and has a particularly entertaining way of enjoying them. Give him a toy and he may spend quite a while chasing it, picking it up, andtossing it into the air like he's putting on his own personal halftime show. He walks better after getting some exercise and enjoys exploring at his ownpace. He's independent but definitely checks in with his people, frequentlycoming over for pets and treats and leaning in for an occasional hug. Nacho is well behaved indoors, and his previous owners reported that he wasan inside dog, crate trained, not destructive, loved going for car rides,walked well on leash, and had obedience training. They also described him asfriendly with adults, kids, and other dogs, but meet-and-greet isrecommended to make sure everyone is a good match. If you're looking for a handsome, well-mannered guy who can entertainhimself, appreciates a good snack, and occasionally delivers a surprise hug,Nacho may just be the perfect flavor for your family!
