Bio: This five-year old Yorkshire Terrier displays a socially motivated temperament and engages positively with other dogs during interaction. He benefits from regular social exposure and may be suited to environments where controlled introductions and consistent routines are maintained. He currently requires further development in several areas of basic training. While he has demonstrated understanding of the “sit” command, additional work is needed to build reliability in foundational obedience behaviours and communication cues. He also requires continued lead training, particularly in relation to walking consistency and handler responsiveness. At present, he is not fully house trained, meaning adopters should be prepared to implement ongoing toilet training routines and reinforcement strategies within the home. His age and responsiveness to interaction suggest potential for continued behavioural progression when provided with structure, repetition, and clear expectations. Overall, his profile indicates suitability for adopters who are willing to engage in continued training and behavioural guidance, while recognising the importance of compatibility, routine, and long-term management in successful adoption outcomes.
