He’s in ongoing reactive-dog training and does best with calm, structured handling. He takes fluoxetine (Prozac) and gabapentin for anxiety; with routine, he settles beautifully. On walks, he has solid leash manners and enjoys focused, rewarding outings. Dog Social: Iroh loves meeting friendly, medium-to-large dogs, especially Huskies and Pit Bulls whose body language/energy match his. With thoughtful introductions, he can thrive alongside medium/large, calm dogs. If another dog is reactive, he may mirror that, so guidance and space help him succeed. Small Animals: Due to prey drive, he’s not a match for small animals or small dogs. At home, expect happy zoomies, full-body wags, and funny Husky “conversations” when he wants attention. He prefers body and butt scritches over head pats. Best Fit: Adults/teens+, experienced with anxious/reactive dogs; predictable schedule; continued positive-reinforcement training. Fenced yard preferred or committed walkers.
