Neroni was removed from a home and we were instructed not to give him back to the previous owner anymore. We did not receive too many details and we were not sure why, as Neroni himself was in perfect weight, good physical state, and cheerful, but apparently he was being kept on the terrace, without going for walks. Unfortunately we do not know the details. What we do know however, is that Neroni has lost a lot of weight in the previous months and is really suffering in the shelter, very much so. He is immensely sad to be locked up in a small room, without human closeness, and he really is very desperate for human affection. He directly falls in love with volunteers who take him out of his kennel, and you can see something so heartbreaking in his eyes - he looks at humans who takes in for a walk, like he is right now, immediately, ready to leave the shelter by this person's side, and never come back again. He is looking at you like he's just checking, "You are the human I will love, right?". Neroni might be a very big boy physically, but he is just a tender soul inside, curling up to your side, looking for closeness and warmth. He is a really cuddly boy, and would love to have a human, who enjoys physical closeness. Now that he has lost a lot of weight from stress in the shelter, he is very food motivated and concentrated on snacks, so it is easy to get his attention and to work with him. Neroni is the kind of dog that will a 1000% be loyal, dedicated and focused on his human. We think he might also potentially have or develop some separation stress, considering his past and also now his suffering in the shelter, so his forever human will ideally work with him, so he builds up confidence and trust to also stay alone at home. As per his breed, he is of course an intelligent dog, and simple exercise as sit, here, heel etc are super easy for him. He would be very happy to have a human, who is interested in some form of dog training with him - simple tricks, some obedience, a bit of agility - this will make him really content and allow him to put his energy to a good direction. He is sporty of course, but not overly physically demanding, also considering his age already. Neron also loves to run around in the dog park, as long as the human is with him. Regardless of his size, he is not overwhelming at all - he does not jump all over you, or knock you down by running into you. He is respectful and considerate around a human, which is really excellent and makes also a smaller size human feel comfortable around Neroni. When first getting out of a kennel, after being locked up alone for 23 hours, he is stressed and can be all over the place on the leash, but as soon as he leaves the shelter stress, he is walking great on the leash, and especially on long leashes, sniffing and discovering the area but always staying so nicely close to you. He also loves to play in the water, and enjoys the big puddles after the rain! During his first day out of the shelter, we saw that he is a bit unsure and insecure about new situations and experiences (which would make sense if he was being kept on a terrace), for example loud truck noises make him insecure at the moment, so a calmer surrounding with a repetitive daily schedule would be great for him. Neroni has no issues with walking stairs, travelling in the car, and he did not react to joggers, normal cars, bicycles - a life in small town would work well! During his second time out from the shelter, he was already more relaxed - sitting nicely in the back of the car, walking really well on the leash, responding to commands. He is indeed a very good boy, who loves cuddles, is gentle and friendly. Neroni is respectful about other dogs, but he is not a victim or a submissive dog, when another dog is provoking or threatening him, then he will say something back. However, he is not initiating tension from his side, based on our experience in the shelter. Most probably he would be happiest being an only dog, and the total focus of his human, but it is possible that he could also join a home with a balanced, social female or even male dog, this will be tested upon inquiries. Neroni is the same kind of social and cuddly with both men and female, he loves humans. His shoulder height is 73cm.
