Tonka 🩵
Tonka is a Chi mix , is 3 years old, neutered, vaccinated & microchipped.
Once Tonka knows you he is a velcro dog who loves nothing more than to be beside his person, however it does take him awhile to get to that point and if pushed to quickly he will be scared and will bite unfortunately.
Tonka will require someone very patient to help him build his confidence and help him with socialization.
Tonka requires someone who is home often and has the time to spend with him.
Initially when Tonka arrived with us he took awhile to feel comfortable to eat so I imagine this would happen when he is adopted so again someone with lots of patience.
Tonka has not been outside in the past 2 years so is not trained to go to the bathroom outside- is pee pad trained.
When left alone is trusted in a smaller space and is not destructive
We have been taking him outside in a fenced in area to get him used to it.
Is not leash train

We have been taking him outside in a fenced in area to get him used to it.
Is not leash trained , we have been working with him getting used to wearing a harness but at this point he still freezes when its put on.
We have also been working on car training and he is doing well with that now.
Tonka did come from a home with other dogs but at this point he seems to prefer to be the only pet.
He is fine if other dogs are around him however he doesn't like if they approach him and
