His name is Ben
We just rescued this little dog . I went outside early one morning and
he was asleep on the seat of our golfcart . We could not find out who
he belonged to , so he is still here .
We love to RV a lot so we are planning on taking him with us . So far
the training is going fair , he loves the Motorhome , but not so much a
leash .
We have no idea what kind of breed (breeds ?) he is .
If anyone knows , will you please let us know what you think he is or
if you have any tips on training him to travel .
This is our first dog in the RV ( we have had dogs before ) so we could
use some information .
Thanks

He looks to be mostly Labrador retriever, but if you want to know for sure there are dog DNA tests

Yeah, I would say a lab mix. The ears are a bit long, so he has something else, maybe some kind of hound. Leash training takes time and patience. What exactly does he do on a leash, refuse to walk or leap around?

Here are my doggies at their usual positions:
Susitna (or "Susi"), on the left, is 1 y.o.
Alyeska (or "Aly"), on the right, is 3 y.o.
We named them after places in Alaska, the place where I met my current girlfriend of 11 years.

He was just sitting there , he's starting to walk a little now !
We have hope , but I hope he does not get as large as a Lab .
He's not very big now , I am sure he has some growing to do though.
Thanks!

Yeah, I had a few like that. I have a bunch of Chihuahuas, if I have one that is scared of walking, I pair them up with an old pro and they learn it's fun to walk. Being he's your only, I guess that won't work. lol You can try treats if he's food motivated. Then he can see being in a leash means food.

That's how we got him to walk a little , with treats , he loves food.
He was really skinney and starved when we found him , so treats
work for everything . He spent the night in his cage last night for the first
time ( we tried that because he's going through the chewing everything stage)
and he slept the whole night.

Animals are more like people than some people I know. They don't judge. They love unconditionally. They at times are our best friends. Where would we be without these amazing creatures. Our companions thru life from our childhood to now I bet you can name each pet with a funny story ....
