Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Chewie, short for Chewbacca, is about 16 mo old and is wanting an experienced handler to help him grow and become a greater dog. He needs an alpha leader to give him structure and boundaries. Chewie is eager to learn and take direction nicely and is food motivated. He can be obedient with the right person but is prone to taking advantage of permissive and overly affectionate people. Someone that knows this breed would be best. Chewie is great with all dogs of any size and would love another big dog to play with as he can be a bit much with the smaller ones. He enjoys walks, loves his toys, playing with other dogs and playing with his person. He shares nicely and can be laid back in the house. He does like to watch the squirrels but does not seem to have a high drive. He has not been cat tested but we think if you work with him this could be a possibility. We do require that chewie not go to a home with young kids or a home with a lot of people coming and going. He has shown some signs of being uncomfortable with strangers due to being insecure and under socialized. With structure and training he will be a wonderful addition to your family.
