Here's what the humans have to say about me:
COURTESY POST-COURTESY POST-COURTESY POST
Turner, a 4 year old Mastiff mix, was rescued from Columbus, Ohio (apparently he was found in a junk yard) @ 9 months old.
He has been a big part of mine and my wife's life. He goes everywhere with us and does great! Up north tubing down a river to downtown Detroit he does great in crowds.
Turner is crate trained but we allow him to be free in our home. He attended obedience training and he knows his basic commands of sit, lay and heel very well.
One of Turner's LOVES is to go swimming. Anything with water and this guy is in. We have a pond and he stays in it all summer.
He LOVES other dogs, trips to the dog park were frequent for him and he loves to play ball.
Although Turner is 4 years old, he can be hyper when meeting people because he gets so excited.
He will need a home without small kids. He has growled at the kids and is having a hard time adjusting to them. He has some sensitive areas that cause this. Sometimes it's a unexpected collar pull or paw pull.
He shows aggression when indoors , it's like his demeanor changes. We have had large parties with several kids outside and he never showed any signs of aggression. This has been a very hard decision and it's something we have been trying to work with for over 1 year. At this point things haven't changed and I have to put my kids first.
Turner is neutered, vaccinations are UTD and housebroken.
If you are interested in meeting Turner, please call Jason 586-859-9971
