Critter Details

OTHER PETS: Einstein is excited with dogs and showed some rude behavior towards other male dogs. He would likely do best with a tolerant, confident, female dog who might help him learn appropriate dog to dog behavior with proper supervision. As with all our dogs, Einstein should meet any dog he would be living with prior to adoption. [Case-by-Case (Must Meet First) **NO CATS**]OWNER EXPERIENCE: Einstein is uncomfortable with some handling, intense about his food & has shown pushy/rude behavior toward male dogs. His best fit would be with a person who has experience with positive reinforcement to build confidence in dogs and supporting them while they learn important life skills. [Some Experience] KIDS: Einstein gets excited during play, becomes intense & does not always settle appropriately afterward. He is also uncomfortable with some handling, intense about food & has a high activity level. Einstein’s best fit would be in an active home with older teens and no cats. As with all our adoptable dogs, Einstein should meet any minor humans he would be living with prior to adoption.[15+ (Must Meet First)]ACTIVITY LEVEL: Einstein is a smart, playful dog with energy to spare. He would do best with regular exercise, plenty of mental enrichment (games, learning new tricks, foraging/food puzzles) and positive reinforcement training to continue building his confidence and skills. With appropriate positive training, he may become an adventure companion to his humans. A combination of mental enrichment and playtime will help meet his needs without overstimulating him. [Olympic Athlete]VETERINARY CARE: [Routine] GROOMING: [Minimal] LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED: Positive reinforcement training will help Einstein bond with his new owner, build his confidence, learn important life skills, and help him learn how to play with humans politely while opening up a variety of activites and adventures. Einstein is observant and catches on quickly. [Moderate]
