Hansen is excited about life and full of energy! He's smart, eager to please, handler focused, and highly trainable. The second I entered his yard he jumped up on me, excited to greet his new friend. He did try to jump up on me several times but learned very quickly that he was only getting treats when all 4 feet stayed on the ground He interacted nicely with all the dogs in neighboring yards, curious about them but never intense or reacting to anyone barking at him. Hansen followed me around asking for me to scratch his head throughout our time together. Like every higher energy breed, Hansen seems to have tons of excess energy that causes naughty behaviors. In his case it's constant jumping but once he's out of the shelter and getting enough exercise and mental stimulation that should be easy to fix. Dog Friendly: Hansen tested well with all dogs! Hansen isn't our most snuggly and affectionate dog at the shelter but he will be your most loyal friend. Please keep in mind: *All dogs need slow intros and time to decompress *Dogs or a 10+ year commitment *Kids should never be left unattended or allowed to bother dogs, but especially shelter dogs! *Volunteers are available to help! We want adoptions to succeed so please message one of us if you feel like you need guidance!
