Mr. Smith arrived at our care center as a stray, so his past is a mystery. Despite this, he's proven to be a charming fellow who enjoys human company. With a soft, sleek coat and gentle eyes, Mr. Smith is both handsome and affectionate. He's known for leaning into petting and giving his full attention to those nearby.
My Ideal Home
Mr. Smith would thrive in an adult-only home with an experienced owner who is familiar with large dogs. A calm, quiet environment where he can relax and feel secure would be best. His new family should be prepared to invest time in his training and daily exercise.
Good with Kids?
No. Due to his reactivity and size, Mr. Smith is best suited for a home without children under 13.
Good with Other Pets?
Mr. Smith has shown reactivity towards other dogs and should be the only pet in the household. He would do best without cats or small animals.
Leash Manners
Mr. Smith is a strong, enthusiastic walker who pulls quite hard on the leash. Training with a front-clip harness or head halter, along with positive reinforcement techniques, would greatly benefit him.
Overall Health
Healthy overall with no known medical issues.
Behavior Determination
Experienced Adopters - Mr. Smith requires a patient owner willing to work on his training and manage his anxiety with gentle guidance.
Other Fun Facts
Mr. Smith loves to engage with people and enjoys mental challenges like puzzle toys and hide-and-seek games. He's sensitive and shy but blossoms with patience and care.
