Additional info:
Albert was adopted from us in 2014. He came to us after suffering abuse in Taiwan. His family loves him and appreciates what a special dog he is. He gets along wonderfully with his family and their toddler but he has a fear/aggression reaction towards people (and kids) he doesn't know and this has become very difficult for his family. Sadly, they think he would be better suited to another home. They are devastated to surrender him as he has come such a long way.
He knows the commands SIT and LIE DOWN and will come when called off leash. He is incredibly loyal and intelligent. He has had quite a journey so far. They took him from an unhappy dog, extremely aggressive towards everyone, to a loving and valued member of the family. He had lots of intensive training and he is now happy and comfortable with people he knows and with people he gets to know over time. He is gentle and intuitive with the toddler and loves his family. But he will become aggressive with the majority of people who enter his home with whom he is unfamiliar. His family is concerned about having other children in the home and as their child grows and has play dates this will become more and more a concern. He's a wonderful watch dog and will make a wonderful addition to another family.
