Description

A nervous/reactive dog who is very affectionate once he trusts someone, and really good with our kids. He is often uncomfortable with unfamiliar people, particularly when they are loud or unpredictable. He needs an experienced owner, a calm environment and continued behaviour work to overcome his fearfulness. He has not bitten, but when overwhelmed he has charged/nudged toward a person and growled to warn when he’s feeling scared. Has just been neutered.
