Pilgrim (now Pono)

Pilgrim (Pono) is adapting very rapidly to his forever home. He is so very willing to learn. And, he really already knows a lot about how to be a wonderful inside/house dog. We can leave him for short periods and he behaves perfectly (no barking, no destruction, no chewing, etc.). He sleeps in his open door kennel/bed at night and lets us know when he needs to go outside.

He's no longer showing food or toy aggression and for the most part has stopped jumping on people. He is improving with each walk and meeting with other dogs with less and less aggression. Pretty amazing results for such a short time. We let him know what is not acceptable and it's like he says "okay, thanks for telling me" and complies.

He's a wonderful spirit. We are so very delighted he has joined our family.

We thought you would enjoy this picture. He's a pretty relaxed guy.
