He has a wonderful nature with other pets as well as children. He does need to be exercised and a fully fenced property is a must. He is easy to walk and very obedient. The reason for adopting him out is because we already have one Huntaway and a Schnauzer. We have fostered this dog since Dec last year and wanted to make sure that he is neutered and vaccinated before going to a good home. He loves the car will make someone a great pet.
