Sullivan has a sad story: He was abandoned by his owner who left him behind at a training facility. Luckily they found out that he was a MAD dog and we got him back!!
Sullivan is a HIGH drive dog with some anxious tendencies who needs an experienced handler who will put him to work! He is toy and food motivated and needs to be consistently worked. Sullivan is not a pet dog nor a SAR or Service Dog. He requires structure and consistent maintenance. He is the perfect dog for someone wanting to dog that JUST wants and loves to work and thrives under those conditions. He has great obedience under his belt and apparently has his first two legs in AKC scent work! So I bet he'd love to continue that.
He is protective and cautious of strangers and will need time to warm up to them. He has high prey drive so no kids, small dogs or cats. His ideal home may be a single person with great leadership skills, wanting to do scent work [or other soft sports], be active with him and really bond with him! He is neutral with dogs when supervised. Ideally, he finds a home where he is your sole focus OR you are used to having working dogs and can manage a crate and rotate situation. He is crate and house trained.
His trainer says he is a really cool dog to train and we hope that he finds his perfect person who wants to help a dog who is too much for most people! We know his person is out there and we just have to find him/her!
All dogs come with a Fi GPS collar and free one-year subscription!!
