Beethoven

Beethoven is described as being friendly, playful, energetic and smart.

He currently lives in a foster home and following is what his foster parents have reported so far: How does your dog respond to other dogs?:
He is indifferent to our 2 dogs (one large, one small both neutered males).

He wags his tail and sniffed them out at first but was not excited or pursuant.

He will run around the yard and play with them but is not overly energetic.

House trained?:
Yes.

He has only had one accident in the house and may have been because we let all 3 outside to potty at the same time.

I suspect they got distracted playing and he may not have gone while outside.

Otherwise no marking lot accidents and stays dry in a crate from 9pm to 6am.

Additional Interactive Details?:
He is very laid back.

Likes to chew hard on toys.

Is very unaware of his size and strength, not that he uses it against you but if you're caught off guard he's just a lot of dog behind any kind of movement.

We have lots of stray kids' toys laying around.

He has tried to pick up a few and chew them.

I have not seen him bother shoes, pillows or blankets.

He does love to chew on bones, Kongs and dog-stuffies so it's possible he just doesn't know the difference between dog toys and kid toys.

Since he is so new to our home, he is not left alone in the house while no one is upstairs or outside for a sustained period of time.

Once while I was downstairs cooking and he was laying in the other room I caught him beginning to chew on the wooden baseboard.

How has your dog been doing in the crate and what have your expectations been?:
Still hesitant to go into the crate when asked but will easily follow for a treat.

Once inside will settle and sit or lay quickly.

He does not bark or whine.

He is crated multiple times throughout the day for short periods both while the other dogs are crated and when the other 2 are free roaming.

He is crated at night 9pm-6am.

He will not go in there when asked or on his own accord yet.
