Needing some training, my previous owner let me get out of hand. Besides made me get heartworms cause they kept me outside to be bred for profit then got rid of me when the heartworms got out of control. I probably had 3-4 litters of puppies, then they were done with me so now i am with a rescue. I am akc registered,, and up to date on all vaccinations. Going through slow kill heartworm treatment, and its really hard for me to stay calm and not wanna play. Can be a little protective, but thats what a guard dog is for. Haven't been around kiddos, and not sure how well i do around kitties. Dogs i am pretty good with i have a favorite playmate named Janie and she is around my size and then some smaller dogs to some degree. If there aggressive im aggressive back.
