Jeff is a really affectionate, lovely dog who would make a perfect companion and friend for the right person. His unusual behaviour shown towards strange dogs encountered during walks, are probably due to his history of being attacked and scarred by the two other dogs in his last household.
The arrival of a new baby within his new home together with the partner of the owner working away, has very unfortunately led to Jeff looking for a new home.
Jeff does get a little worried when the baby cries and will run and hide. His owner says that Jeff has met and made friends with two terriers and two GSDs. This was built up over a few meets and then introductions to finally playing off lead.
Jeff's owner rescued him from an abusive home, where he was being mistreated and attacked by other dogs. He had no training and had not been socialised. She's done lots of training with him and he's responding really well. He knows all basic commands and is trained to respond to hand signals too. He is great on & off the lead & has excellent recall... He'll even close the cupboard doors for you! The only thing she can't seem to teach him is that other dogs aren't scary. He has real fear aggression when other dogs come too close.
Jeff is looking for a confident knowledgeable owner, someone who can continue his education and help him with his doggie etiquette.
