𝗩𝗼𝗹𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀 This dude was finishing dinner when I approached his kennel and was busy sniffing around for any leftovers but came over and let me leash him easily. He can pull some on the leash but I was able to handle him. Once in the yard he was so happy to see other dogs. He had the cutest play bows and just wanted to romp around. He?s such a dog?s dog! He was def more interested in dogs than me or my treats. He kept running around with the pup next to us. He?s super playful and goofy! Super friendly and very confident boy! He?s really handsome too, his tongue sticks all the way out when he?s tired, it?s a spectacle lol. Overall he?s an awesome dog that?s ready for a fur sibling and for many adventures!
𝗦𝗵𝗲𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀 approaching the kennel tonka was standing at the door with wagging tail and relax body. was easy to leash, when we start walking outside he pulls forward and shows no interest in the treats. He becomes very focused on his surroundings. tonka greets me at the fornt of the kennl with all four on the floor and slow wagging tail. Opening the kennel door , he tries pushing his head through the gap before I get the leash around his neck. when walking on the leash ,he excessivly pulls forward and shows no interest in the treats I offer. He becomes very focused on his surroundings . Very forward on the leash. Pulls all the way to the runs. Difficult to gain focus when trying to take Tonka back into the building. He pulled, standing up on his hind legs, when I stopped and stood still. No interest in treats as we made our way back to his kennel.
