Dislikes:
I need to pay the cheese tax to get him in his kennel but once he is inside he is VERY quiet. Will only bark when he sees my other dog out and playing, but when you put a towel over the front he settles.
He alert barks in the morning when other people are leaving their apartments, but we are working on desensitizing him and he is doing great.
Other pets/children:
Very good with other dogs, however, still is corrected by his older foster brother when he plays too rough.
Sometime I separate them when he is having problems with impulse control (i.e. other dog doesn't want to play but he is over stimulated)
I tested him with my parents Toy Aussie (10lb) and he was interested in playing but was too rough for her. I'm hoping with time he will grow out of his puppy energy and be better with her
Not tested with children yet
Ideal home
Would probably do well as the only dog- but would love a playmate!
Home with a yard so he can get his energy out with a playmate, however, he has mastered the elevator and stairs in my apartment building.
The only issue I foresee in an apartment situation is the fact that he loves to say hi to EVERYONE- but some dogs in the apartment are reactive.
Common questions:
Not tested with cats yet
Good with dogs!
Not tested with children yet
Will bark if people are at the door or in the hallways, but desensitization training is going well!
Will not bark while crated and does well alone at home. I usually only get sound notification based on him moving in his crate
95% housetrained - he has had two accidents because I didn't take him out fast enough after a play session with my dog.
VERY GOOD IN THE TRUCK. Just sleeps and no travel anxiety.
Still learning how to walk on a leash, but will heel for treats
