Meet 'Joe'





Joe is 1 year old and a happy wee boy. He is fine with other dogs with proper intros but can get a bit snappy if they invase his space whilst on lead sometimes.

He'd do anything for a game of fetch and if you have a toy/ball/small kong he will be your friend for life. He shares his toys with the other dogs no problems, even shoves them in the other dogs faces to initiate play. He loves to play with the other dogs without toys too and loves a good game of chase lol

He is a fun wee pup and will make anyone laugh everyday, he is just so full of character.

He loves cats but not in a good way! He chases them and on the one occasion he caught one he didnt know what to do with it so let it go to play chase with it again!!

He lives harmoniously with a dominant bitch, a dominant male and a submissive bitch. He plays best with the dominant bitch and male. The submissibe female is too boring for him.

When he's had enough play or it gets a bit much for him he takes himself off to his quiet spot

He will need a little bit of lead work as he doesnt get walked on lead very much at the moment but doesnt pull like a train. He knows what heel means, he just likes to be ahead most of the time.

He knows all of his basic commands. His recall is 100% no matter what seems more exciting elsewhere. He 'asks' to get out for the toilet, stands at the food cupboard when its feeding time and knows 'breakfast time' and 'dinner time'.

He's got a bit tail for a wee boy and whacks it off of most things as it never stops wagging.

He is crate trained and fine to be left for a few hours in that but is also fine with run of the house and isnt destructive as long as he has had sufficient exercise and something to amuse him. i.e toys.

He's loves fuss and will come to you a lot to be petted and he loves sleeping under the covers with you. He is equally happy to sleep on his bed at the top of the stairs or downstairs in his crate. He gets on well with children he meets aswell.

He does try to jump up a lot but he knows he isnt allowed unless invited so a firm no, down and he is fine.

He barks at new people coming into the house but not in an aggressive way, just until he can get to say hello

He is very submissive with humans and if he is told off for anything he just lies on his back to say sorry

An all round playful, responsive wee man that will fit in anywhere
