About LAYON

Layon, shelter 341 days ago My name is Layon, Malinois crusader dog who arrived at the refuge by the Vendée impound because he was found wandering; We don't know my past, but it's a sign of abuse. I'm a dog that is reactive when I don't know with a proven fear for men. What I hate? When a stranger looks in my eyes! But once in confidence, I become a great dog very nice, affectionate and playful, obedient (I come to the reminder) as the volunteers of the shelter were able to discover. I'm even sponsored by a young volunteer who takes me on a walk to the beach and the fields, which I love! I am calm on a walk (I can shoot if I encounter a congener or human that scares me), and my greatest pleasure is to dig holes and catch the ball! I appreciate the visits to humans I know because I have hugs and treats. I am an energetic dog when they come to see me, I can find it hard to channel my excitement (I jump high!); I also know how to be calm during hug times. I already have a good education, I obey easily and quickly understand what is expected of me; you will have to do a job with a professional for my unknown reactivity and learn how to channel my emotions in some cases . The deal with my congeners is a little complicated but recently I am very close to another male of the shelter with which I am in park so possibility of agreements according to the heads. However, it is not recommended that I live with other animals, as well as with children and people often receiving (unknown) guests. I need a life in the countryside, quiet, rather than in town or in urban areas. My future adopters will have to have had dogs ideally of the malignant type, and know well the canine education (positive) and dog behavior because I am a dog that requires sweetness but also cadre

Layon, au refuge depuis 341 jours Je m’appelle Layon, chien de type croisé Malinois arrivé au refuge par la fourrière de Vendée car trouvé errant; on ne connaît pas mon passé mais celui-ci laisse présager de la maltraitance. Je suis un chien qui se montre réactif quand je ne connais pas avec une crainte avérée pour les hommes. Ce que je déteste ? Quand un inconnu me regarde dans les yeux ! Mais une fois en confiance, je deviens un super chien très gentil, affectueux et joueur, obéissant (je viens au rappel) comme ont pu le découvrir les bénévoles du refuge. Je suis même parrainé par un jeune bénévole qui m’emmène en balade à la plage et dans les champs, ce que j’adore ! Je suis calme en balade (je peux tirer si je croise un congénère ou humain qui me fait peur), et mon plus grand plaisir est de creuser des trous et attraper le ballon ! J’apprécie beacuoup les visites des humains que je connais car j’ai des câlins et des friandise 🙂 Je suis un chien énergique quand on vient me voir, je peux avoir du mal à canaliser mon excitation (je saute haut !) ; je sais aussi être calme pendant les moments câlins. J’ai déjà une bonne d’éducation, j’obéis facilement et comprends vite ce que l’on attend de moi ; il faudra réaliser un travail avec un professionel pour ma réactivité inconnus et m’apprendre à canaliser mes émotions dans certains cas 😉 L’entente avec mes congénères est un peu compliquée mais depuis peu je suis très copain avec un autre mâle du refuge avec lequel je suis en parc donc possibilité d’ententes selon les têtes. Il est cependant déconseillé que je vive avec d’autres animaux ainsi qu’avec des enfants et des personnes recevant souvent des invités (inconnus). Il me faut une vie à la campagne, au calme, plutôt qu’en ville ou en milieu urbain. Mes futurs adoptants devront avoir déjà eu des chiens idéalement de type malinois, et bien connaître l’éducation canine (positive) et le comportement canin car je suis un chien qui demande de la douceur mais aussi du cadr
