Dune (Dunie), is an 8 month old sweetheart in the house. He is cuddly, and playful like a typical pup. He loves my kids, 6 and 13, but is sometimes a little mouthy when playing. We had one incidence where he nipped my daughter pretty hard and it bruised, but it was my fault because she was riding her bike and I was running along with her with Dune, and he does not like bikes (or things with wheels). He does chew a bit if things arnt put away, and like to counter surf for food. He is super smart, doing well with training and love to play fetch. Dune is fine with our cat, but she does not like him.
Outside is a little different. He is super reactive towards dogs/ people when on walks, barks and lunges absolutely crazy, and has redirected on me a few times when I couldn't get far enough away from a dog/ person. We dont have a yard and live in a busy area, so we walk him very early morning and late evening doing laps around the school yard behind our townhome to avoid encounters with dogs/people as much as possible. We took him to a private training session for this and were told to keep him far enough away, so that he doesnt react, and reward for looking at the stimulus without reacting. He also is a car chaser, but can often be called off with ' leave it'.
He is actually really good off leash( this is on private property, out in the middle of nowhere), comes when called and stays with me. He lives to swim too. He is fine in the car in his crate covered by a sheet, but will bark at things without it.
He is up to date with shots and had heartworm, flea and tick prevention this year. He has not been neutered yet because our vet recommended waiting until he is one year.
