Description
Kaito's family loved him dearly. However, due to a sudden change in circumstances, they were no longer able to care for him. As Kaito's family wanted him to find a safe and loving forever home, they surrendered him to a rescue.
Kaito is a big, interactive, and energetic guy. Having previously lived in a busy household with small dogs and older kids, Kaito enjoys the company of others. However, he is a big guy so he would be best suited for older children. Kaito is social and enjoys the company of other people; however, he needs time to adjust to new people. He is responsive to calm and confident handlers. Kaito's family clearly did a nice job giving him opportunities to socialize with other dogs and meet with success in new situations. Kaito, just like all GSDs, will thrive when provided with structure, leadership, and routine. Food and toy motivated, Kaito loves to learn new skills and will be a star in training class. Starting training with Kaito will help him not only bond with his new family, but it will also help him develop into the good canine citizen we know he is destined to be. Kaito is looking for a forever family that will provide him with a safe and loving forever home as well as a lot of belly rubs. Could that be with you?
Updates
Kaito is thriving in his foster home! He has proven to be a happy go lucky boy who loves the company of other dogs and humans. He finds solace in his crate and will go in there just to relax with the door left open. He sleeps through the night quietly in his crate and waits patiently in the morning to be let outside to potty. He takes treats gently and has not shown any food or toy aggression. At first Kaito did not know how to do the steps in the house but is such a smart boy that in a 24 hours period had them mastered with some coaxing with cheese. He loves to run around the yard with the other dogs and is learning how to play fetch. He loves things that squeak and is especially fond of his pink ball and orange chicken. In the house he will play with his stuffed toys by tossing them in the air and trying to catch them or dropping them in your lap for you to throw. Speaking of lap he thinks he is a lap dog and will try to squeeze into whatever space you give him. From time to time he may require a stern no if he gets overly excited and starts mouthing which has improved greatly in his time in a foster home. He loves to be pet and while doing so he will slowly slink down your leg and onto his back for belly rubs. He engages politely with the other 2 resident dogs and is learning how to play with them. Kaito is welcoming to people who come in the house but from a distance will bark to let them know he is there protecting the house. Since Kaito is a big boy and strong he will need someone who can handle him. Kaito wants nothing more than to find a family to share his joy and love with. Ask to meet Kaito today!
