Carl Sagan A183512 87 lb. neutered male, approx 3 years old -This handsome guy looks big and strong from the outside, but don't let looks fool you! He's timid and nervous at times and will need someone willing to work through it with him. -While walking inside, he would pause at the doorways and needed encouragement to get moving again -He doesn't need encouragement when snacks are involved! He's very food motivated! He will sit and can take them gently. Sometimes he gets excited and wants to help himself, but with gentle correction he remembered his manners! -He will occasionally give paw, but only when he feels like it 🤷‍♀️ -He enjoys pets, but did have a hard time completing settling in within this environment -He showed some interest in toys -He walks nicely on leash with minimal pulling -He seems non reactive to dogs nearby, BUT...he does get nervous when loud dogs bark at him as he's passing by. He would most likely benefit from a calm, respectful doggie sibling after slow and proper introductions.
