What kind of home would be best for me? Conan is looking for a home in suburbia, he is laid back and chill. He will enjoy walks through the neighborhood and then settling down for a movie on the couch with his humans. Conan would be happiest with a couple looking to spoil a standard rotten – he wants to be the apple of your eye. If you are a retired couple with an empty house, Conan would like that! Conan needs to be the only dog in the house. He can go on walks with other dogs and visit with dogs of calm energy but after several years of being surrounded by other dogs, he is ready to be the only one. No dog parks for this boy – it’s simply too much energy. Conan has met cats and is non-reactive to them, he could live with a laid-back cat that just exists in the home. Conan would prefer children to not be frequent visitors, he is very social with humans but looking for a laid-back environment. Conan is sociable enough that we can see him attending social events like patio dinners, breweries, and downtown walks.
What is my personality like? Conan is a people dog, he loves his humans immensely. Conan is very affectionate with his humans. He loves to be by his human as much as possible. He is versatile in many situations and adapts to new routines pretty fast. Conan is a happy dog all around, he has more confidence than you would expect from a dog coming out of a neglect case. Conan would benefit from training classes; he is very food-motivated and intelligent. He would excel at basic obedience and would love to go onto advanced classes later on. Conan walks nicely on a leash. He is crate-trained and keeps his space clean. Conan is a dog who can walk into your home and easily transition into the life of a companion.
How do I act when I first meet new people? Conan loves all people, he greets them with ease and is always ready to see a new face.
Other tips and tidbits: Conan is estimated at 4 years old. We celebrate his birthday 4/16/2020.
House trained? Dogs can be house trained if they are in the right environment and are allowed to follow a schedule if a physical reason doesn’t keep them from being trained. A dog house trained in my home may not be in yours. We will help you teach your new dog this necessary skill and based on your schedule.
