Story
~~THIS DOG IS **NOT** IN THE CARE OF THE ALTERNATIVE HUMANE SOCIETY. THIS IS A COURTESY POST. PLEASE REACH OUT TO THE OWNER DIRECTLY AT sarahmc@live.com FOR SHIO~~ Shio ("Salt" in Japanese), is a 4 year old super mutt (likely German Pointer). He weighs about 40 pounds and is up-to-date on his shots.  The good: Shio is an outstanding citizen in the house. He never goes potty inside, is crate trained, doesn't get into food/trash, and is respectful of furniture. He is obsessed with love and attention. Knows commands like sit, down, stay, leave it, spin, and jump. This guy loves exploring the outdoors, from the beach to the mountains.  Shio is great with our dog-savvy cat, but would likely need a slow introduction with a new cat. Shio does well with our dog, but he is dog reactive. Possibly with a very slow introduction, he could live with another dog. He can be very rambunctious, so a highly tolerant dog would be needed.  While Shio has been good with our 2 year old child, I would not recommend him with younger children as he can be nervous with their unpredictability.  His needs: He requires an experienced dog owner. With regular exposure and training, his dog-reactivity improves greatly. He can also be fearful of strangers and has shown protective behaviors (only at our home as he has made himself the "guard dog"), so he needs a home that has the ability to work on this with him. A fully fenced yard is also needed. He takes daily medication for anxiety and eats food designed for sensitive stomachs (Hills).  We are wanting to make the transition for Shio finding a new home as gentle as possible for him. We are willing to do multiple meet-and-greets, home visits, and slow transitions.  ##2585473##
