Justin is a steadfast and self-assured boy with a great depth of character – gracious and gallant to all, he is like a king who reigns with dignity and daring.  He is generally “calm, cool and collected”  but beneath his luxurious, fuzzy “teddy bear” coat beats a puppy heart that takes such pleasure in all of the simple joys that life has to offer.  Justin is politely playful and ever-appreciative of treats, toys and games that engage his active mind.  He is a quick and methodical thinker who enjoys mental and physical challenges – he really enjoyed clicker training and even took on some beginner’s agility obstacles!  Socially, Justin is gentle and supportive of his friends, whether they need to lean on him for his strength or his silliness.  He is especially caring and watchful over his brother Eddy, and the two would make a wonderful team if they were homed together.  He loves meal times and neck rubs beyond all measure.  Overall, Justin is cooperative in nature with a noble, loving spirit!  

After the completion of his racing career, from January to May 2013, Justin was enrolled in a teaching program at Becker College, where he helped students learn the fine art of responsible animal care.  He has done a great service for the community by helping the animal professionals of tomorrow learn to be compassionate and capable in their field of study.  He is 3 years old, castrated and microchipped. He has had a dental cleaning and is up to date on his vaccines, heartworm and flea and tick protection.  Justin has also been introduced to clicker training, and has had some experience in a "real-life" apartment which has helped him become familiar with the skills he will need in his new life as a beloved pet.  Please consider meeting him if you are looking for an intelligent and affectionate friend!     

Justin is great with people but no cats, please.
