Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Blue is a great dog! He is house and crate trained ?. Once outside EVERYTHING is fair game for peeing on though haha. He does learn quickly (He no longer pees on the upper deck) so you can teach him where you don’t want him to pee. He loves walks and listens well to a calm leader. He pulls more with my husband and son because he doesn’t view them as leaders but as friends who are along for his fun. He gets along well with our dog. He plays nicely and as his hormone levels are dropping he is not bothering her as much. In the beginning he had nothing on his mind but getting some love. Tia was not in the mood for his persistent , but super cute, attention.?. He never pushed or got aggressive about it. He was just “Aww come on baby. I LOVE you” He will not be good with small animals/birds. If he thinks you are not watching he will jump on the cages trying to catch the sugar gliders. Also we let him out not realizing one of chickens had gotten loose. Luckily she is fast and Blue only got a couple mouthfuls of feathers before she reached cover! I am not sure how he would be with a cat. He is a counter surfer and feels it is ok to sample anything he can reach if he thinks no one will see him. He is calm in the house, likes to rough house with my son, and enjoys toys. He does not resource guard from us or our dog. It’s really nice to give the dogs toys and not have to worry about them fighting over them.
