Low/Medium<br/><br/>House trained?<br/>Yes. Just watch him closely the first few days. In a new place, he will want to mark. Once he is comfortable and feels safe, the marking went away completely.<br/><br/>Describe how they are on a leash?<br/>We are still working on leash training. At first, he did the alligator roll when he felt the slightest tug on the leash, but after just a few days, he no longer does this, and will walk well short distances. It will take no time at all for him to be comfortable going on long walks. He loves to be outside!<br/><br/>Describe how they are with other dogs? Spunk is a happy-go-lucky pup and loves to hang out with and initiate play with other dogs.<br/>If a dog shows that he/she is not interested, then<br/>Spunk<br/>just walks away politely.<br/><br/>Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they? NA<br/><br/>Commands they know? Sit<br/><br/>What are their favorite things? Being by their person. Food motivated<br/><br/>What do they need to work on? Submissive peeing, being handled.<br/>Walking on a leash for longer periods of time. He is also very shy around new people, so you need to go slow until trust is established.<br/><br/>How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone? Spunk is fine being left alone. He has been left alone for about 5-6 hrs.<br/><br/>Where do they sleep? In a crate or on a dog bed<br/><br/>What is their ideal home?<br/>Spunk would do well in any home with or without other dog(s). He would prefer to be in a house with someone around most of the time, but I think he would be able to adjust to a full-time working family, too.<br/>Spunk may need a bit of time to adjust. He prefers a calm environment.
