Looks can be deceiving. I may look older than my 4 years but let me assure you I have plenty of life in me. I absolutely love going to the park, the beach, in the car and on as many adventures as possible. When I am at home, I love napping and prefer to be touching and cuddling you at all times. Even if this is just leaning on you as you prepare (my) meals or clean (for me)!
I LOVE my squeaky toys; they are my favourite! I also enjoy sun bathing in the yard when the weather permits and playing tug-o-war. I am a very smart boy, and when Iām not napping, I like to have fun toys to keep me stimulated so I donāt get bored. I am a special breed with a very good nose and so I must smell EVERYTHING especially treats.
I am quite a strong, chunky boy and I am still learning how to behave on lead properly. I have come a long way though, and I am learning not to pull so hard when we go for walks. Further training on a halti would work wonders and I will work with you if you give me treats in return. I get on well with other dogs in my household. Am happy roughhousing or just snoozing around.
My ideal family would involve me in all of their activities! Kids are not a great idea since I am really large and strong.
My one quirk is that I can be quite triggered during storms (even if you canāt hear them). I am currently taking anti-anxiety medication for this purpose only in case there is no-one with me when a storm occurs. You need to understand that if I do go berserk during a storm I can be a danger to myself or your house as I turn into the Incredible Hulk. I have been ok with my foster parents during a storm as they play white noise and sit calmly with me.
Sheloy is fine with dog savvy cats
