Name:   Rex Gilroy  
Description:   ~ 3 yrs old ~ 26 lb ~ fostered in Washington, DC ~

Rex is an absolute sweetheart who loves snacks and cuddles. He is still adjusting to indoor living and is prone to the occasional accident, but he is quickly coming to enjoy the comforts associated and will take himself to the crate when he's ready for a nap.

Rex doesn't mind a bit of mischief and is widely regarded as an Olympic-caliber counter-surfer. Rex enjoys his long walks and trips to the dog park, where he loves to run and play with other dogs. He understands and often responds to his basic commands (come, sit, down) but is easily distracted when the sweet, tempting aromas of food and treats reach his active snout.

From his limited interactions on walks, Rex appears to like children, but he gets very excited when they approach and may be prone to knocking over the little ones. Rex would do best in a home with a yard with owners who will continue to work with him. He's eager to please, ready to learn, and can't wait to lay his head on your lap and nap away a lazy afternoon.
