My story

Hello there, I'm Bruce, Male - neuteredShepherd MixApprox. 2 years old I'm a playful and eager pup on the lookout for my forever home! I've been busy adjusting to my new environment and focusing on building my confidence. My days have been filled with leisurely walks, some time in the yard, and cozy moments lounging in my crate.I'm proud to say that I've had a pretty good start with my training. I'm a bit of a foodie, which means I'm very motivated when treats are involved. I've quickly learned that paying attention to my handler comes with delicious rewards! I'm getting the hang of the marker words, and my enthusiasm for learning is growing by the day. Even when there's a bit of excitement around me, like another dog moving, I'm able to focus and get back to the task with a little redirection.I've also started exploring obedience work. Naturally, I'm a bit of a pro at sitting, so my trainers are helping me learn the "down" command. It was a bit of a puzzle at first, but I'm figuring it out and gaining confidence with every session. Problem-solving is kind of my thing!I do get a bit excited and pushy when I want attention, which sometimes results in a barking outburst. But don't worry-I'm working on it! I'm learning that calm behaviour is the way to go. I also need to practice being more patient and neutral around other dogs. With time and training, I'm sure I'll get there!I'm fun, engaging, and always up for a challenge. Once I feel comfortable, I have this playful, pushy energy that's hard to resist. I love problem-solving and am eager to engage in training activities. With my food motivation, I'm settling into the program quickly and looking forward to continuing my progress.My ideal forever home is one that will support me in my journey and enjoy my playful spirit. So, if you're looking for a loyal, energetic, and trainable companion, I'm your guy! Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: Brown Weight: 35 Age: 2yrs 3mths 0wks
