Meet 2501-0468 Neo
PUPPY NEO - 6 months - 1 year old, 47 pounds, friendly. HAPPY EXCITED ACTIVE These are the first impressions I got when meeting NEO, a new resident at VBACAC. He is young, jumpy and so ready to get out of that shelter cage. When we got to the yard, my impressions went immediately to STUNNING, REGAL, IMPRESSIVE. Neo sits. He sits quickly. He sits calmly. He sits with a serious look on his face, chin up, shoulders back, confident, very military-like. He knows what to do and he does it...for that treat. He is very treat motivated. Neo is so treat motivated, he didn't really investigate our surroundings but instead focused on me, the treats. This might reflect well when taken into a new home where training can begin immediately, bc this beautiful boy is still a puppy. He will need your help getting him used to a new environment. He will need your help getting settled in and learning boundaries. Neo didn't seem bothered by the other dogs when we walked by or when others passed by but we still don't know how he feels about other dogs. Introductions should be slow and proper to everyone adjust. Oh and supervision is important when multiple dogs are around. Neo is currently in a back kennel so if you don't see him, please just ask.
