Flint's Story
Name: Flint<br/>Available Through: CATS and Dogs Northeast Volunteer Team <br/>Contact: cnevolunteerteam@gmail.com <br/>Located in Northeast CT <br/>Breed: Weimaraner <br/>Weight: approx 65#<br/>Sex: neutered male <br/>Age: DOB 8/22/2022<br/><br/>Background: Flint's original owner passed away when he was about a year old. His last family had taken him in then and put a lot of training and work into him but ultimately realized he needed more than they could give him. <br/>Current Description: Flint is a big sweet boy who wants to always be with his person. He would do best in a home with an active family. He is a clingy boy which is typical of the breed. He is a super smart dog that would excel with a family that runs or hikes or maybe wants to dabble in dog sports. <br/>Energy level: moderate to high<br/>Favorite things to do: be included in what his human is doing, play with the other dogs in his foster home. Go for walks/hikes<br/>Commands: sit, down, come, stay. He has done a 4 week board and train with Hop River Shepherds, he is also e collar trained. <br/>Dogs: yes, he's done very well so far<br/>Cats: has been neutral <br/>Kids: he lived with kids aged 8-10. He also spent time with other children but he has had a past if not doing well with children who are not "his" children. He has nipped at kids before, I would highly suggest an adult only home for him as it would be an easier adjustment for him. <br/>House-trained: yes <br/>Crate-trained: He needs a sturdy crate, he doesn't love it, he will break out of a wire crate but has done well in a vari kennel style crate and he can be sent home with his high anxiety crate that came from his previous home. <br/>He does cry for a while but will settle down when crated.<br/>He has been doing better each day at his foster home when it is time to be crated, we think keeping him busy and exercised is helping. <br/>Vaccinated, spayed/neutered, microchipped, tested:<br/>Yes
