This Sweet Smushy Rottie/Lab pup has limited time at the shelter and URGENTLY NEEDS A HOME/FOSTER/SPONSOR in order to survive! - PLS HELP US SAVE HIM!

Joseph cheats! That's right, he cheats. When you tell this large 1 1/2-year-old Rottweiler and Labrador Retriever to sit, he sort of squats then flops on his back and demands a tummy rub. That's not honest sitting. And worse, you end up rubbing his tummy rather than chastising him because he's so cute. Even when he's not mocking your obedience training, he's nuzzling you because he's so affectionate. And, he's friendly with both people and dogs.

Unfortunately we don't know how he is with cats or small children so we'd recommend that he go with older kids 10 yrs+ because of his size (65 lbs and still growing!) Still, you'd need to get serious with him if you want a well-trained companion. He's already easy to lead and wants to please, so he'd learn your commands quickly. Please call ASAP to save him and see if you can resist his cheating and his loving. Bet you can't.

If you'd like to meet/adopt Joseph, please e-mail back to this post or call #212-533-0822 for an application ASAP....THANK YOU!
