#264 Trump Pit Bull Terrier New Haven, CT

18-month-old Trump was found as a stray. He is a very handsome and strong boy that needs some training. He does know several commands but being young he needs consistency to learn what is expected from him. He screeches when he meets new dogs and gets a little overstimulated so he should be socialized in proper meetings and outside behavior when he sees other dogs but calm down somewhat when he finally meets them nose to nose( other side of fence). He appears to want to pounce and play but doesn't quite now that pouncing without meeting leads to unwanted responses. He does tend to grab the leash and gets overly excited when playing with rope toys. When he becomes hyped he should be redirected from this behavior and play should end. We recommend that he live with a mature family experienced with large strong dogs in need of obedience training. No other pets until he learns how to introduce himself properly to other dogs.
