Paddy is a 2 year old, very handsome Patterdale terrier. He has a fantastic temperament, loves people and is a wonderful companion, he has never been around small children only around 12 years onwards.
Paddy needs lots of attention and exercise, he loves being outside, and loves playing with his squeeky ball. His recall could be improved, especially when there are rabbits about so we recommend professional training. He will play with calm, kind dogs once he knows them but can be boisterous. He feels threatened by big, aggressive dogs, and he barks at them on a lead so he needs a lot of time, patience and socialisation with dogs.
Paddy is very active and energetic and capable of jumping high so garden fences need to be completely secure and at least 6 foot high.
He is obedient , will sit, lie down, and when having the lead put on he will sit quietly while it is attached. If you tell him to wait he will not barge through a door but he will wait until told to go through. He never has had an accident in the house but will tell you when he wants to go to the toilet. He has been crate-trained from a puppy , he sleeps in the crate and tells you when he wants to go to bed. He also travels in a crate in the back of the car, is quiet and is never sick.
This is a super young man for an experienced terrier owner who wants a well mannered, fun dogs to take for long walks. Pet home only please, we do not rehome to working homes.
Paddy is neutered, vaccinated, treated for fleas and worms, and microchipped
