Bobby is a sweet and goofiest guy who just wants to be your best friend and share all of life’s adventures with you! He is loyal, goofy, eager to please, and loves nothing more than being with his person.
Bobby can be a bit aloof with new people at first, but give him a minute and he's in their lap. He is great at keeping focus for his age and is more than ready to bond with his new person. With his person, he is a go-getter that always is on the move looking for things to do and places to explore. If you don't give him a job, he'll find one!
Bobby loves car rides, doesn’t get car sick, and really thinks the vet is the coolest thing ever. Playing with his humans and other dogs are favorites of his, and he can be quite the talker letting you know when it’s time to play again! He has been exposed to children, goats, chickens, other dogs, cats. He does have a high prey drive, and will resource guard high value items from other animals, and will bully a less confident dog. So a home without other dogs, or with a confident and secure dog and human that will teach him boundaries is a must. He has already made improvements in his current foster home, as he is sensitive to correction.
Bobby is working on enthusiasm around the crate but will go in. He stays clean all night. He is continuing to build his confidence and absolutely adores being out and about seeing all the new sights and experiencing new smells and sounds. He is essentially a blank slate in the obedience department. He still needs basic manners, but walks decent on a leash.
With more exposure and confidence building, he would potentially thrive in nosework, agility, rally, dock diving, fastcat, or possibly detection. He would also make an excellent walking/hiking partner! His favorite pastime is catching rain drops from the umbrella, but I don't think that's an official sport.
