Hi there
I have a beautiful 2 year old male brown and white lagotto male. He is the world's friendliest dog and just adores people and other dogs. Due to an unforeseen change in our circumstances, he went to live with a family friend of ours and her two older dogs just over a year ago. However she is getting on in years and can no longer manage him from an exercise and grooming point of view and it is now time for us to decide whether his future is best with us at home in less than ideal circumstances. We simply do not have the time we would like to spend with him and fear he would get lonely and destructive. Getting another dog for company is not feasible. I would not be willing to rehome him to anyone unfamiliar with lagottos. He needs plenty of exercise and his hunting instinct appears to be very strong. He will not return when called if he is chasing birds for example.He lacks some basic good doggy manners (ie jumps up , pushes out the door etc) due to having been a bit spoilt. This I think could be fixed.
I guess I am putting this out there to see if any of you have any good ideas.I have contacted his breeder but have not heard back at this stage (he is desexed etc). I have had many many sleepless nights tring to decide what might be best for our dog. Am not taking any decisions lightly. Thank you.
