Hi, guys, my name is sophie i’m fostering Dante. he is doing great. Yes he is with children at the mo, my kids are 3 and 5 but they have rules when it comes to new dogs he may be better with older children, he has the sweetest nature but he does steal things, socks, toys etc. he is getting much better at letting me have them back now tho, it took forever the first time. I wouldn’t let a child do it, you have to be very firm but not harsh as he knows and you’d lose his trust,otherwise you end up chasing round the house.
He loves his walks, he is going out twice a day for at least 40mins each time. very happy chappy, tail always wagging, loves to do the school run with me, loves my kids and my dog even tho he’s grumpy with him. Think he needs an active family if he is to behave. Is fully housetrained and has learned to sit and does so automatically for food and to come in from garden. He’s a little clingy, he is my shadow and whines when he can’t get to me, although he learns very quickly, he now sleeps down stairs on his own without crying at night. very vocal as well , at the mo he is ‘talking to me’ for me to play with him. No food aggression, he eats with my dog no probs.
If i think of anything else i’ll post it. On a whole he is lively and happy just needs someone firm who doesn’t give in to those gorgeous eyes.
Since he has been with me, he’s had a bath, been de flead, wormed, had his matts cut out and a good brush. He loved the bath, crying to get in !!!! loves water, out on walks he’d be right in any puddle or ditch. O and he’s on James Wellbeloved dry food with some fresh meat nd veg for taste, he loves it and looks much better for it. Such a beautiful guy.
That sounds great, a funny thing, he sometimes falls asleep stood up!!! he just loves to be in the action, can’t bare to miss out. I’m not sure about cats, he just gets very excited and vocal with them, the cats near us all bolt so can’t really test him.
went for an hour and a half walk in the woods yesterday morning and he still came home and played in the garden with me and the kids and then went for another walk later on, i got a lie in this morning tho!!
