He is a very powerful protection dog and very quick to alert, but yet he is safe in public and always up for a field trip. He simply loves to go places. He is wonderful in the car, at the park or in the wood out for a hike. He knows several fun tricks to go alone with his obedience training and in general is simply a fun, loving companion that is fully capable of defending your well being if the need should arise.
