Although he’s still building confidence with the crate, he’s making progress and will happily go in for a treat. He’s also attentive to training and listens well, making him a joy to walk—just watch out for his occasional prey drive if he spots a squirrel or deer!

With patience, Stapleton’s affection and loyalty will make him an irreplaceable part of your life.
