Meet Theo
Theo is a sweet and compassionate fur baby!
Still only young, he has great energy and loves a a good walk.
He can also be quite shy as he went through some difficult times as a puppy with the original owners.
Theo does bark quite a bit, but is currently being trained to only have him bark in moderation.
He will require a home that can provide him with sufficient attention, love and a bed inside the house (especially of a night time) as he is not a huge fan of being outside alone for extended periods of time.
Theo would be best suited with another well behaved dog to provide some companionship for those long days when nobody is around.
Great with kids, other dogs (except Huskies).
He is weary of loud noises which seem to startle him.
At first he will bark to alert the owner of a new presence (in their general nature) and barking is can be overwhelming, but he does not mean any harm - we believe it is just because he feels insecure, but once he gets to know you, he is fine. He generally is scared of males, but has taken to my husband quite well and they are great friends that do a lot of things together - when he trusts you, he is a fantastic companion.
Your patience, support and on-going training will be required to see him become one of the best dogs you could hope for.
Feel free to come and meet him, you will require a good hour due to his first reaction upon meeting new people, need to give him 20 minutes or so to settle and trust you.
