MEIKO NEEDS A JOB
"Looking to find a good home for Meiko. He needs a job to keep him occupied
all day. Was sold as a pet, but should really be a working dog. Even though
I am home with him most of the day, he exercises daily, and often rides in
the car with me, he needs more to do.
My dog is: Meiko vom Grunenfeld
Sire: Warro vom Suentelstein
Dam: Hera vom Grunenfeld
Date of birth: 1/16/08. Black and Red.
Meiko is being raised in our family including a high-energy 3-year old, and
2 Whippets. We have a dog door so he can take himself out to potty. Sleeps
inside or outside, whichever he prefers. He is confined to a crate only for
short periods of time.
Meiko has not been neutered.
Eats WolfCub.
Supplements: Nordic Naturals Omega-3 Pet, Cosequin DS
(Glucosamine/Chondroitin).
Interceptor and Frontline Plus.
Has been training with Mike Stone starting the day I took him home at 8
weeks. Has been to a 2-week boot camp, and is working off leash (without
distractions).
Meiko has a very strong prey drive. Plays well with 2 best friends
(Australian Shepherds). Is well socialized with all types of people. Does
not get along with cats. I would not trust him with any small dogs. When I
walk him, people always comment on what a well-behaved dog he is, and call
him a "lover". I have always made him sit before anyone is allowed to pet
him. He acts very aggressively with most other dogs when on leash.
Meiko is a "water dog". It is not possible to keep him out of water. He
throws his balls/bones into water buckets, holds his breath and retrieves
them. Plays in the waterfall. However, he does not swim in our pool.
If you are interested in him, you can "borrow" him to make
sure it's a good fit. I need to visit his new home/job with my daughter. I
can have a preliminary OFA done if needed.
