Personality, likes/dislikes: Bandit is very friendly with people and super smart. He really loves to work on training and is very food motivated. He is reactive on leash with dogs, better with female dogs. He dislikes cats, so no small animals in his new home would be best.
Best home scenario: Bandit is a very high energy intelligent dog who would do best in an active family willing to give him the exercise and mental stimulation he needs. Someone involved in dog sports would be ideal for him based on what we have seen at the shelter and how much he enjoys his time training. He has met a couple dogs at the shelter that he was great with but can be very selective with his dog friends.
