Asher's Training Achievements

• Friendly with Strangers: Asher is comfortable meeting new people, regardless of age or gender.
• Leash-Ready: He walks calmly and confidently on a leash and loves going on walks, hikes, and outings. Despite his small size, Asher expertly anticipates foot traffic and dodges feet with ease. If accidentally bumped or stepped on, he remains calm, happy to accept an apology and affection from anyone.
• Extensive Training: Asher knows an array of commands and behavioral cues, including recall, on- and off-leash walking, "leave it," "wait," "stay," "come," "off," "lie down," "shake," "heel," "roll over," "give," "be gentle," "stay close," "crawl," "stand," and "go say hi."
• Calm When Alone: he is perfectly comfortable spending a day alone and shows no signs of separation anxiety. He's calm, relaxed, and does not engage in any destructive behaviors while you're out.
• Potty Trained: Asher is fully potty trained and can hold it while you're at work. When he needs to go out, he'll nudge you and lead you to the door.
• Comfortable and Calm in Crates and Bags: He's relaxed and happy in a crate and is comfortable in any travel bag you choose. He won't bark and stay quite resting as long as you need him.
• Great with Children and Other Dogs: He is wonderful with kids and gets along well with dogs of all sizes. Even in the presence of reactive dogs, he remains calm, unfazed, and simply carries on with his day.

Asher's Special Care Requirements

• Health Conditions: none
• Dietary Restrictions: none
• Asher is flexible with his diet and adapts well to changes in his food without requiring an adjustment period. He enjoys both human-grade food and kibble, and we don't enforce strict rules about avoiding human food or sticking to specific meals. He is a light eater, so we adjust his feeding schedule to suit his appetite. Sometimes, we leave food out for him, feed him every other day, or provide meals in a crate or by hand. This approach helps him maintain good bowel health while allowing him to enjoy a varied diet.
