COURTESY LISTINGS:
COURTESY POST: "Sauvage" Location: Cleveland OH
Owner surrendered 6 month old purebred male Dutch (neutered Monday 12/16/19)
Born June 3rd, 2019 he was sold in Aug to a 22yr old with no working dog experience, and has had no training.
Rescue in OH currently fostering him has his papers, lineage, etc. Seems untrained and underhandled, but not abused or neglected.
Was starting to get pushy and snappy as a result, exhibited some fear reactivity/biting at strangers (no blood or broken skin, just typical dooshy untrained behavior and protective of handler), and the kid couldn’t handle it.
Once he knows you, he’s a total love and protective, but definitely needs an experienced, gentle handler. Comes from KNPV lines.
Not tested for drive or work/sport, but due to lineage would expect him to have good potential.
Previous Dutch/Mal ownership required.
No kids.
Seems fine with other dogs (though ill advised for very small fragile dogs), and wasn’t interested in a local passerby cat (but not fully cat tested).
CA Working Dog will pre-screen interested adopters for the rescue that has him, please complete the adoption application or contact us directly for more info. Approved adoption application and adoption donation required.
We can help transport from Ohio to the NY/CT area if needed to help him get into experienced hands.
