Nitro D5135's Story
Nitro was rescued from a crowded shelter. He is very athletic strong and smart. Nitro was distracted at first at the shelter due to his high energy level but with exercise he will focus on a person and start to learn. He is very treat motivated and loves playing ball - he even knows how to open the toy chest to fetch out his ball. Nitro gets excited when he first meets a dog but with proper introductions he calms and good with the dogs he met. He will use his paws to try to play which some dogs don`t like. He needs to learn dog manners. Nitro has great potential just needs a chance get his basic training and a sport or job. He needs a very experienced guardian/trainer and lots of exercise. May have potential for disc dog (can jump high/agile) or possible detection-type dog. Nitro should be placed in a home with adults only. Update: He is doing well at our trainer/boarding home. Very eager to learn and fast learner. He needs couple of weeks of training before we can see more of his behavior/personality. Update 1/29/16:Update: Nitro is doing well at our trainer/boarding home. He is very eager to learn and is a fast learner. Nitro loves people and is fine with other dogs. He has great drive for ball ball with string and focus. He could possibly be great as a K9 Detection dog.
