About John

His behavior with cats is still a question mark; however, he remains calm and polite around neighborhood strays. This sweet boy is fully house-trained and knows his basic commands. He has great manners—no begging at mealtime and no counter surfing! John loves to fetch and thrives at dog parks, where he can play with other pups. He can become a bit vocal when excited, eager for another toss of the toy. Supervised play breaks are essential since he can play hard. John is a massive cuddle bug who thinks he's a lap dog. He enjoys car rides, especially when he can feel the wind in his fur. At home, he settles well with his dog bed and heavy-duty chew toys—considering he’s a powerful chewer, durable items are crucial. When walking, he sometimes pulls, particularly near roads. He has playful moments, even grabbing his leash. After about 10 minutes, he usually finds a comfortable rhythm. His goofy personality outweighs the fluff mess he can create with stuffed toys. John is sweet natured and non-aggressive.
