Original owner left without him, has been outside all his life. Be patient and you will be rewarded. Hasn’t been professionally trained but will do anything for a treat. Loves squeaky toys and tearing tennis balls apart. Will jump into every pond and river (but obviously I’m not allowed or he’ll panic haha). The dog house goes with him, along with all his other stuff like the kiddie pool and all toys. He is extremely curious and loves meeting new dogs, which can be a problem because he will be overly excited sometimes. Moreso an issue with smaller dogs because he will not be passive in a dominance display towards them. His optimal weight is around 35kgs and makes a great jogging partner. I also have to find a new place and unfortunately it’s not going to be possible in any way to afford to keep him or find one suitable for him in my budget. He has been professionally groomed multiple times and doesn’t struggle much when being washed with a cold hose. Though he hates his claws being touched. He loves car rides and will enter a state of over stimulation, I haven’t given him a chance to jump out the window but he has been very interested in doing so. Frankly his biggest issues is being too excited but as he has grown up that has become much less of an issue. He doesn’t bark except for attention or strange noises in the night. Doesn’t like fireworks or thunder but sitting with him is enough to make him calm enough to go to sleep.
