Meet Alberto
Alberto REQUIRES a high-energy, playful FEMALE dog who can handle his rough play. He will submit to dominant female dogs and does best in a scenario where the other dog is the leader. He can be pushy with food, and will try to eat another dog's but given that the dog can tell him "no," he will back off. He has shared many food dishes with female dogs without incident.
He is great with all people, but for most, will wear you out if not given the opportunity to expel his endless energy. We don't recommend him for children under the age of 12 simply because he may knock them over with his energy when excited. He does know basic commands like "sit" but will only listen to people whom he respects as a leader. He goes great with his senior caretaker and never jumps on her.
A fenced yard REQUIRED. Alberto is NOT a good candidate to take to dog parks due to his dislike of many male dogs. He needs the safe confines of a fenced, secure yard to run multiple times throughout the day.
For those interested in formal training--he *could benefit from training using positive reinforcement tactics ONLY. A pinch, prong, choke or electric (e-collar) is NOT acceptable for ANY dog, and especially not a dog like Alberto. The benefit of training would be to ensure basic adherence to household commands. In the right setting he will follow the lead of another dog and pick up any skills they have-in terms of manners.
