Lazzi is a very good old guy, laid-back because of his age and good nature. He loves hanging on the couch, on his blanket, on your blanket, on a rug and in his dogbed. He follows his humans around, curious about what is going on and maybe there are treats to be had in the kitchen. Considering his old legs and arthritis, he is quite the walker. He trips now and then, when he is overconcentrating on his sniffing, but it does not really bother him. He loves grassy knolls, dirt patches to pee and poo on and it is nice and soft under his paws. Lazzi would love a home with a garden and/or a park in the immediate naighbourhood. In the house, he loves a carpeted floor or as many rugs covering the slippery hard floor. Lazzi happily greets people he meets with kisses on their hands, their knees or whatever he can reach. He loves attention from humans and enjoys headscratches or a bit of a back massage. Dogs, he does not like at all. He spots them from afar and growls and barks at them, while lunging on the leash. Best to keep him away from other dogs, by redirecting him, with treats and your firm directional behaviour. Lazzi has some kidney problems and takes medication for it and for arthritis too. He, like most dogs in fostercare, can get a little anxious, which could be calmed by meds, eg. when he needs a vet visit. Due to his medical condition, he cannot hold his pee for very long, so he loves to get out for quick pees every 2-3 hours. Wee wee pads or a dog diaper wrapper could help as well. He is the cutest, sweetest senior dog who deserves the best and most caring adoption home.
