About Truman
Truman is a sweet natured gentle giant with a heart of gold. He is friendly with absolutely everyone he meets and is always calm when meeting someone new. Truman has always been an indoor dog, and adores the comfort and warmth that this lifestyle brings. You will have to be prepared for the large amount of space that he will inevitably take up, but he is not bothered if you come cuddle right up close to him and scootch your way in for some room on the couch too.
Truman has lived with dogs and cats previously, however he would also be happy being the only pet as long as his family have lots of time to spend with him. Although he is a gentle soul, he is still a puppy!!!! He has some puppy like behaviours like mouthy play and pulling on the leash that will need to be worked on with a family who is willing to put in the work to train him and guide him into being the best doggy he can be! Although he is friendly with children of all ages, due to his size he may be best suited to children over the age of 10. He may be a bit nervous initially, but if you give him the space and time he needs to come out of his shell, you will see his confidence grow and blossom.
Despite his gentle nature, Truman does like to tear apart some of his toys. But he knows very well which ones are his to mess around with. He enjoys his walks, and is generally quite well behaved on the lead, but just like any puppy may pull when he sees something exciting or distracting, meaning he will need a strong handler on the other end of the leash. He would like daily walks with his new family, as well as some playtime and zoomies in the backyard.
