Cadence D12409's Story
Meet Cadence-the definition of a gentleman in the house and a total party animal once he steps outside! Inside, Cadence is calm, respectful, and surprisingly low-key. He has no interest in surfing counters, raiding the trash, or claiming your furniture. He's perfectly content to relax in his kennel after breakfast and a morning potty break while his foster mom takes care of things around the house. But grab a toy and head outside? **GAME ON!** Cadence's inner Malinois comes shining through, and he is an absolute hoot! Tug, ball on a rope, Frisbee, catch-you name it, he's ready to play. He's got some serious Frisbee moves and could have the makings of a fantastic sports dog with the right person.<br/><br/>Cadence shows his affection in the sweetest ways, gently nudging his nose into you, offering a paw to shake, or leaning in for a good behind-the-ears scratch. He can get very excited when meeting new people and may try to jump up to say hello, so he's working on remembering that he is a BIG boy and his enthusiasm needs to come with good manners. Around dogs, he can calmly watch them from a distance, but when they get closer, his excitement kicks in. His high-energy play style means a canine companion would need to be a good match for him.<br/><br/>Cadence does best with calm, consistent handling and someone who understands his Malinois ways. He can be sensitive to quick movements, so his foster is teaching him to respond to calm direction rather than being physically guided. The good news is that Cadence is a smart boy who is learning quickly-he'll happily sit when asked and is making great progress with his manners. He's also not a fan of storms, so having a sturdy kennel where he can feel safe and secure is important. And motorcycles? Well... Cadence LOVES them a little too much! His foster family is continuing to help him learn to keep his enthusiasm in check.<br/><br/>When it comes to playtime, Cadence is **ALL IN** until the toys disappear. Once playtime is over, he settles beautifully and relaxes. He's also potty trained and has been a very quick learner about where he should-and should NOT-go in the yard. Flower pots, cars, and baby toys are safe from his bathroom business, thank you very much! <br/><br/>Cadence is a goofy, athletic, smart boy who is looking for someone willing to give him the time, patience, consistency, and continued training he needs to become the amazing companion he has the potential to be. With the right person, this fun-loving guy could be an incredible adventure buddy, playmate, or even a future sports dog. And one thing is certain: life with Cadence will never be boring!
