Elvis is being returned to the rescue because his family is too busy for him. Elvis was a challenging dog but showed to respond VERY well to structure, training and being active. He is an excellent companion for a family with experience.
Elvis is a 2 year old terrier mix. He has a lot of energy that can be channeled into a good long walk or playing with other dogs. He does great at doggie daycare and one-on-one playdates with other dogs with similar high energy. He loves taking walks but is still working on perfecting leash walking manners, especially when he gets excited. He is working on "saying hi" to strangers and maintaining his excitement. Elvis just LOVES everything. He knows how to sit, laydown, shake, touch, wait, leave it and rollover. He is super smart and learned how to heal and jump over obstacles in less than a week. When he gets over excited, he jumps, nips and pushes. He is also actively working on some leash reactivity when he sees other dogs, simply because he desperately wants to play with everyone.
The best home for him would be someone who can be available to exercise him daily and a doggie playmate and a very predictable routine. Until he can get his jumping, barking and reactivity under control, I'd also recommend no small children. Elvis loves cats but they may not love him. He would do great with another active dog and adults. He may not do well in an apartment and would need a quieter home due being easily startled and will bark. He has shown to do well on a mild medication for anxiety.
