About Brian
I'm Brian and I'm looking for a new family to call my own.
What I need in my new home:
• Daily walks, trips to the park or beach, playtime in the backyard
• Further training with basic doggie manners
• Rides in the car
• To be allowed inside with my family - I am used to being allowed inside and sleeping inside at night.
• I have previously happily lived with a cat so should be ok to go to a home with a cat with a slow introduction.
• I need to be an only dog as I can be dominant with other dogs, but I would love a family who PROMISE to socialise me with other dogs in a controlled environment so I learn how to play with them nicely
• Secure Fencing (I previously had a 4ft fence that I never got out of)
• Lots of toys and mental stimulation
• A diet of good quality dry food to help keep my teeth clean
• Lots of love and attention
Things that I don't want in my new home:
• To be left alone in the backyard without any interaction
• Not to be allowed inside with my family
• Never to go on a walk or rides in the car
• Small children due to my rough play & being mouthy & bouncy (plus they scare me a little bit)
• Other dogs
My best features:
• Affectionate & playful who loves cuddles
• Housetrained
• Very playful
• Talkative during play
• I can sit, shake hands, come & stay when asked
• Highly food motivated
• I LOVE toys
• I swimming
• I walk well on lead for my size & strength
• I love attention and having snuggles with my humans
• I have had some basic obedience training and am a generally well-mannered dog. I am clever and eager to learn so would love a family who will teach me some cool tricks.
Where I need to improve / Training required
• I can be a bit bouncy -training should stop this
• I can be a bit mouthy when I get excited and playful - training needed to stop this
• I can be reactive to other dogs through a fence and on lead etc. Further training and socialization will help this.
• I can come across as quiet dominant - being desexed now should help this. Having an authoritative owner is a must.
