My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Bruno Nevada (neutered male)
1 year (dob 12/30/22) - Pyrenees mix (60lbs)
Adopted as a puppy and recently returned due to food guarding around small children
Described as active - affectionate - playful
Lived inside - High energy
Cons: Barks excessively - Jumps on people - Escape artist - Food guarding - Will roam if able
Pros: Housebroken - Crate trained - Rides in car - Playful - Lap Lover
Knows sit and lay down
Enjoys bones, running and balls (but doesn't like to give back)
Good w/ women, men
Fair w/ children, other dogs and cats

From foster:
Bruno is working on his stay, waiting at doors (sliding glass doors and kennel door), down and leash training. He's a quick learner but he's stubborn and doesn't listen all the time. We just started leash training and I invested in a gentle leader/head collar which he responds well to and helps with his pulling. He's also doing much better with jumping on people he still jumps but rarely makes contact. He does bark outside but if you bring him in he quiets down.

Bruno is fantastic at sit and has a great recall most of the time, he is kennel trained and house broken, he has great house manners he waits for permission on furniture, with a chew toy he is more than happy to lay down and chew on it. He's good for nail trims, baths and blow drys and LOVES to be brushed he also enjoys car rides. He's good with other dogs both males and females, large and small dogs. He's okay with cats he does better with calm cats that aren't scared of dogs but should be supervised at all times.

Bruno has a manageable kid of energy a walk or two or fetch in the yard and he's good for the rest of the day, Bruno dose not like to be outside alone so a doggy friend or a person outside with him or else he will bark and cry. Bruno will require a taller fence or need to be tethered because he can jump short fences. He has not shown me any resource guarding around food or treats the only time he growled was when one of my dogs tried to take a chew toy away from him.
