This affectionate boy enjoys being brushed and gets playful, showing off his zoomies from time to time. While Tony may become a bit excitable when clipped onto his lead, he quickly settles into a calm demeanor once he's out. He’s generally well-mannered on walks and takes the time to sniff around his environment, but he does require structured exposure to other dogs, as his initial interest leads to rough interactions. Tony completed his airline crate-training flawlessly, lying quietly in the crate, which shows his adaptability. It's worth noting he's clever and has figured out how to open some outdoor pen latches, so secure gates are a must in his future home. Overall, Tony is a loving and engaging companion who thrives on affection, consistent boundaries, and routine. With the right guidance, his charming personality will truly shine.
