About Me
He is happy and pretty well behaved out of PACC. He can sit, lay down, doesn't pull too hard on leash. Timmy is doing well. We are working on his desire to play with water bowls and he has been food/toy/bed aggressive toward other dogs only. That may recede in time and with moderate correction, once he feels safe here. Otherwise, he is a complete sweetheart. He will sit there and let you pet him all day long. I think he will make some family a really awesome pet. We took him to the dog park for an hour and a half today and he had a blast-was kind to everyone and ran ran ran. He probably needs a bit more basic obedience done with him, but he has fairly reliable recalls and decent stays. So far he isn't very toy or food motivated. He MIGHT be okay in a home with cats, but definitely ONLY under strict supervision. I'd say he is moderate drive with low-moderate prey drive. He could live with any family as he loves everyone (but would probably bond strongly with one person), has decent leash manners, is overall house broken, and requires minimal grooming.
