Sonny is sweet with people, but he has behavior issues. He can get along with dog or cat if we introduce them slowly, he sometimes good with strange dogs.
I got him from a shelter, he at that time already have a record may hurt the previous owner's kid, the record was not very clear if it is an attempt to attack or the person really get injured. After I got him I took him to training, and did some evaluation. From what we observed he is good with kid, no sign of aggressive toward kids, however, he did end up hurt a person while that person trying to break the dog fight between his dog and mine.

He is well behaved under people present and no strange dog, but I have to go to work and his second behavior issue become really problematic. he has high energy, and he wouldn't mind to hurt himself to get the freedom. Hope someone have time and space to spend with him can take care of him, he would be a good choice.
