Twister is a well behaved boy that can spend his time roaming around the house while supervised. He loves other dogs and cats of all ages and sizes and plays well with children and elderly.

He is currently now allowed on furniture. Is crated during the day when not with his handler and sleeps through the night on a place bed inside the handler's bedroom. Twister has shown great interest in toys and games and has not bothered shoes, rugs, trash, carpet, potty accidents, or destructive behavior.

Twister has been used as a demo dog for our trainer's in-home lesson program. He continues to remain calm, no barks, and confident even when meeting obnoxious dogs.

Twister has been a wonderful neutral dog to others of all ages and sizes. He can be pushy around female dogs in heat, but a simple "leave it" works really well.
