My story

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

We got Uhtred from a colleague from my husband’s work. We got the puppy around 8 weeks. He initially had Parvo virus, and we took care of that. Due to that we couldn’t take him out for like more than a month. Which we missed in crucial socialization time. After he shed the virus my first priority was to socialize. I took him to Lowe’s, we stood outside of shopping centers. I started walking him around busy areas. Due to his high energy I also started walking him three times a day with one big walk during the afternoon so he wouldn’t be so active inside the house. He gets very anxious if we leave him, but he eventually settles. He sleeps in his crate that’s his absolute down time; unless he is in there too long. We take him to doggy day care to socialize with other dogs but with people he gets very defensive. He is very strong willed. He requires plenty of attention and training. I have two kids at home which he is great with, but he will bark at anyone who approaches him. He is 8 month
