When I got my Chopz, that's his name, he was my cousin's and she was loosing control of him.
He was aggressing on anyone who would approach her and was also aggressing to her.
I took him on and immediately bonded with him, took maybe 5 minutes.
He was going crazy at first so I took him outside just he and I, and we made eye contact and I connected, and ever since he's been like a little human.
He listens to words he doesn't know the command of, he's just a very empathetic dog.
If I say "stay off the grass" he does.
He poops in the weeds, neverin the open, and always with his butt over a tall bunch of weeds.
I don't leash him, he has a harness and stays at my side always.
He does have anxiety SEPERATion though.
He was heavily abused as a pup revolving around his food, so I literally hand Feed him.
He is my best friend.
