and dogs with enthusiasm, very confident body posture and wiggles. (HIGH
confidence & MEDIUM human / HIGH dog friendliness) When he is finished
exploring his surroundings or offered a treat, he will be glued to you for
more. Ralphie will follow you and interact with things in the environment

toy play. (HIGH motivation) Loud sudden noises and movements do Not startle

was doing. (LOW sight/sound sensitivity) When dragging a toy he will follow
curiously and interact with it, but not intensely. (MEDIUM prey drive)

his way as far as restrictive handling (LOW touch tolerate), treats help him
forgive fast!
