Jack's foster family reports: Heâs potty trained and sleeps well in a crate overnight. He got his first bath today and did very well!Heâs VERY vocal which we are fine with, but his bark/ talking/ howl is very loud and a little startling. He responds to âquietâ and settles down. Heâs still very hesitant of physical touch and will not easily come to us or allow us to pet him, but itâs getting better every day! Heâs nervous around any new people, but is not aggressive at all! He just likes to tell the new people (aka bark) at them to keep their distance. We have not tried a walk yet bc itâs hard to get close enough to get a harness on, but we plan to tackle that soon. Heâs very food motivated, so training with treats will be easy.Jack does really well with our dogs! We have a German shepherd and a dachshund. Good to know he does well with dogs of all sizes. He doesnât ask to play a ton, but when they get to playing he wants to join in. He responds well when they set boundaries and he also will set a boundary when needed. He hasnât quite figured out fetch, but he enjoys chasing our dog when he plays fetch.Heâs not as energetic as other puppies weâve had which might make him a good fit for an older adopter or someone that canât be home all the time. Bc of his barking and size I donât think heâd be a great apartment dog. He does love to wander the backyard and do a lot of sniffing.
