He is a good guy with a sound disposition &#8211; and he really needs a break.<\/p>\n<p>This handsome blue-eyed guy is deaf, which honestly doesn&#8217;t hold him back. What does hold him back is that no one has taken the time to teach this big pup good dog manners. For instance, he loves other dogs but sometimes steps all over them in his excitement. Some dogs are just fine with that. Others find it pretty annoying. He also loves people and is super friendly. But sometimes he gets a little excited and leaps up when he shouldn&#8217;t. You get the idea &#8211; he&#8217;s an enthusiast.<\/p>\n<p>With consistent\u00a0training, he will learn his boundaries. Please give him a chance to achieve his full potential &#8211; and if you can&#8217;t adopt him you can still help out by joining our volunteer program and taking him out for an afternoon in the park!\u00a0\u00a0He is microchipped, neutered, up to date on vaccines and ready to go home!<\/p>\n<p>From his foster:<\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;s clearly able to bond with and seek\u00a0affection from humans &#8212; he asks for pets, gives me kisses and comes and checks in on his own accord. \u00a0All good things for bonding with a potential adopter.<\/p>\n<div>I think he would do well in a place with a big enclosed yard so he could burn off\u00a0his working dog energy. Or with someone willing to exercise him every day.\u00a0\u00a0I also think another dog would be very good for him &#8211; I&#8217;ve noticed first hand that he does pick up good behavior from my own dogs. \u00a0He really follows their lead. \u00a0And most importantly, he&#8217;s learning the rules of the house, doing much better being a decent house pet around here.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>He&#8217;s also incredibly smart, I&#8217;ve really been impressed by his intelligence. He needs someone who appreciates this and is willing to train him or put him to work.<\/div>\n<p>Would you like to meet Herbert? \u00a0Please fill out an application at norcalfamilydogrescue.org.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>More about Herbert<\/p>\n<div id=\"qualities\">Good with Dogs,\u00a0Good with Older\/Considerate Kids Only,\u00a0Good with Adults,\u00a0Somewhat vocal,\u00a0Likes to play with toys,\u00a0Needs special care,\u00a0Playful,\u00a0Affectionate,\u00a0Eager To Please,Intelligent,\u00a0Goofy<\/div>\n<p>Please contact Northern California Family Dog for more information on Herbert:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.norcalfamilydogrescue.org\/animals\/detail?AnimalID=6507115\">h<span style=\"line-height: 1.4em;\">ttp:\/\/www.norcalfamilydogrescue.org\/animals\/detail?AnimalID=6507115<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About Herbert Status: Available for Adoption (adoption info) Species: Dog Rescue ID: 14-0006 Color: white Eye Color: Blue Current Size: 50 Pounds Current Age: 1 Year 6 Months (best estimate) Obedience Training Needed: Has Basic Training Reaction to New People: &hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.bullterrierrescue.org\/?p=1313\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[22],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bullterrierrescue.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1313"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bullterrierrescue.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bullterrierrescue.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bullterrierrescue.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bullterrierrescue.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1313"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"http:\/\/www.bullterrierrescue.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1313\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1324,"href":"http:\/\/www.bullterrierrescue.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1313\/revisions\/1324"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bullterrierrescue.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1313"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bullterrierrescue.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1313"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bullterrierrescue.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1313"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
