Mr Tovi is coming along as far as other people are concerned.
He is becoming more relaxed with boys and men in his world 1 day at a time. This sweet boy is treat motivated and will sit for a young man who lives in our home so his focus is on the snack instead of the fear fed anxiety that he now has. When the fear is removed he sits for the snack and allows the young man to go about his business without Tovi constantly barking.
He loves going for car rides and watching squirrels and rabbits. His sploot is the cutest thing and a bonus is that he is crate trained. He is very handsome and has earned the label “handsome Spam”.
Being at home with his ppl is were he prefers. He loves a good bed, belly rubs and ear scratches. He will sploot on my food when mildly anxious like some how plugging into a centering station lol. He really is the bestest boy and loves his ppl.

BIOGRAPHY: Tovi is a very loving dog. He is very relaxed and chill. He enjoys chewing on bones and tearing apart as many stuffy toys as you will give him!
