Shadow, the Dog of the Day
Name: Shadow
Age: Three years old
Gender: Male Breed: Lab, Shepherd, Hound
Home: New Mexico, USA
 
   This is Shadow. We adopted him about a year and a half ago from a rescue. He is a Black English Lab/Shepherd/Hound mix. He loves playing fetch, learning new tricks, and playing with other dogs. Jingles, my parakeet, loves to climb all over him. He even lets her sit on his nose! Although he gets along with birds, he chases squirrels and deer. Shadow will even jump six foot fences to get to the deer or squirrel he is chasing, which of course we discovered accidentally!

    Another activity he loves is swimming. He can out swim most dogs. ;) Chasing tennis balls down the beach and then plunging into the water is his favorite. Right now he knows about 60 tricks and commands. Whenever I bring out a treat he does all the tricks he can think of, hoping to receive the treat. One of my favorite tricks to watch him do is limp and whine at the same time. Some other tricks he knows are stick 'em up, play the piano, climb a ladder, weave backwards, and jump through my arms. We love him very much!

    Here is a video of some of Shadow's Tricks.
