Calling all GS lovers!!!!!

Lincoln is our 2 year old VERY handsome hunk who is now looking for his FOREVER home!

With professional training ,to help him understand people did not give him the necessary tools to feel his most confident self, he is SO ready to start his life💕

He LOVES:
All the people!
Being OUTSIDE- so if you are a farmer, gardener, contractor etc he is your sidekick for sure

He DOESN'T love:
TV's while crated - that is for quiet sleep time not entertainment
Being too idle - only after exercise and mental stimulation does he enjoy a good nap

He EXCELS at:
Recall
Obedience
Crate

Gentle-Sweet-Handsome

Lincoln will come with five FREE training sessions for the adopter to learn about him and how he can enhance someones life💕
