Gus is a ten month old tan and white male Cocker Spaniel that weighs around 35 pounds. This smart fella is crate trained and potty trained. Gus is very high energy. He is still a baby, but he is full steam ahead with other dogs. He loves all dogs but he does not understand boundaries or testing the waters before entering another dog’s personal space. Some dogs are ok with this, but some do not approve and have a less than great reaction. Gus likes people and kids but not little kids. He does not like them in his face or trying to take his toys (I mean who would, right?). So yes, this little man needs additional training and more positive life experiences to teach him the ways of being a good boy. He’s just young, packed with energy, and wanting to face life full force!
