Gary is very friendly and calm!
He does not jump on you, usually waits for permission to jump in the recliner with you.
He loves to cuddle and have his belly rubbed.
He gets along great with other dogs and is very friendly towards them and wants to play.
He is potty trained and will go when taken outside, he likes to run around but doesn't go far.
He does jump at you when outside to let you know he wants to chase you.
He does tend to be stubborn when it's time to come in because sometimes he wants to stay outside and play, but with a stern voice he will come inside when called.
He does not like being in a crate but he has shown he does not need to be in the crate all day, he can be trusted and does well left out all day while I am at work; no scratching or chewing on anything.
His eating habits are a little weird, seems to want to eat when I am home.
He is a good guard dog, he will softly growl to warn you when he hears things or sees people walk by but will not run around barking.
If you ignore him he will will bark at you to let you know he is there and wants your attention to cuddle or I assume go outside.
He will lay on the sofa but will not damage it but he does lick himself alot so put a sheet on the sofa.
He is doing better with commands, knows the word potty and No.
He is not big on snacks, especially Greenies, takes his time to eat them when offered.
He likes to follow you inside and wants to lay by or with you.
