He is a neutered, fully vaccinated 1and 1/2 year old male rottweiler.
Dillon just got here a couple days ago. He will be here for about a month for socialization and training and then he will be ready to go to his for ever home. The most touching thing about Dillon is that he has not known much interaction and yet he is wonderful with people.
He loves Maiya's bed! Took right to it first night.
Dillon did not know what to do with toys, now he has quite a stash. He has been hit as when I first gave him a tug toy he winced away from it and anytime you move to quickly he ducks away but recovers quickly. Now will play gentle tug if we do not get to rough with it. I have seen some possession issues over toys and am thinking this may be common with these dogs as they have never had them. As he is a little protective of his toys...I will just flood him with them and switch them around every day so he learns they come and go, no problem.
He is chewing on bones and getting raw meat some of his meals. I gave him his first scrambled eggs and he said More Please! I was able to handle his food bowl and feed him from it.
He did not know what a TV was and so likes to sit and watch it.
Dillon learns very quickly, and is coming and sitting on command already. He did not know what to do with stairs or the ramp and has now mastered both.
When I go to take him outside, he gives me kisses of his own accord with wiggly tail! He recovers well when something spooks him.
Dillon tested heartworm negative but will be on Heartguard for 6 months as a protective
He does like to sleep in his crate, so that is good.
