About Mikey
AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ADOPTION
Mikey is a handsome boy, with good manners after his initial excitement. He is gentle, loves children and would definitely benefit from having a fur sibling to keep him company as he does suffer from mild separation anxiety when alone and becomes verbal if he wants to come inside. It's the only time you will hear a noise from him. A firm 'uh uh!' and he gets the hint. He is very social, responsive to commands such as sit, stay, uh uh! and positive reinforcement such as telling him a good boy and giving pats as rewards.
Mikey is super smart and eager to please. We are confident that with a little patience this boy could learn any trick in the book! He loves a cuddle and is very placid most of the day. Late afternoon is reserved for zoomies and a good walk/run. He is protective of his yard, house, people and fur siblings but does not bark unnecessarily. He sometimes needs correcting when a bit of jealousy sneaks out, a firm voice is all you need! Mikey is getting better with food, he is currently fed twice a day. We can put our hands in his dish, his mouth and take his food away with no issue, he does however exhibit some resource protection traits around other dogs but we remain confident that with persistence and the right training he can overcome this quickly. Otherwise, separation while feeding will be needed. Mikey is happy to be inside or outside, loves to have his jacket on of an evening and is potty trained. He is happy once shown what furniture or bedding he is allowed to nap on but will occasionally try to sneak onto the 'good couch' for a cuddle, hoping you won't notice. And boy can he nap! Whether it's like a pretzel or stretched out on his back like a human he can nap.
Mikey will be a great addition to any family who has the time and attention to give to him. He's still very much a puppy and will slot in to a good loving home without so much a hitch. Just mind your pot plants, they tend to pick fights with him and he usually comes off best!
