Romeo Bio

Romeo is a gentle giant. He loves love and serving his person. Romeo successfully passed his public access test recently and has been training in a variety of different settings (home, office, gym, grocery stores, hardware stores, school, ect.). Romeo responds well to commands in all these environments the first time.

Romeo’s heart of gold and love for his person would make him an excellent candidate as a psychiatric service dog. He bonds to his person through affection and praise. He calms the anxious heart quickly and discretely with a nudge of his nose and immediate reminder to pet him. We continue to work on his ability to detect and deter his human from undesired behaviors (scratching/skin picking/ect). These behaviors vary from person to person, so final development with this skill should be refined with his human. Romeo provides deep pressure therapy and accepts snuggles when his human need comfort (or anytime). Out and about, he has learned boundary maintenance ensuring no one startles his person from behind. Finally at night, Romeo trained easily to sleep bedside. He is on call and ready to help whenever you need him.

Romeo’s size lends itself to assistance with balance and other mobility needs as well. He is learning to brace his stance to attend to the task of providing extra support for his human moving between sitting and standing. Romeo walks gently on his leash close to his human, so this training could tailored to balance needs.

Romeo’s family life has included older children and adults. His limited interaction with smaller children means he is less confident around them. While he could adapt, his preferred person is at least 12 years old and knows how to treat dogs kindly. Romeo loves men most! Where some pups, shy away from the deep male voice, Romeo finds himself drawn to it. Romeo’s current and developing skill set make him a great service dog & companion for Veteran of the military, law enforcement, or first responder community.

Romeo has a curious, yet submissive demeanor. He has learned that cats are always the boss and learns pack order with other dogs well. Romeo has proven that other animals are not a distraction for him when he is working, even his own sister. His gentle giant personality would enjoy snuggling on beach or watching you play video games than play fetch a ball.

Romeo is a larger dog, but would do well with anything from apartment living to a house with large yard. He definitely prefers to spend his days with his person wherever that happens to be. Romeo is house trained and will potty on command (if he needs to go) in a small grass area.

Romeo stole the hearts of his guardian family and they love him dearly with open arms. They know Romeo is ready to be part of a family and team where he will be a blessing and be blessed. His heart and mind are ready to serve you. If this gentle giant sounds like the service dog you need, please contact Balanced Obedience to schedule a time to meet Romeo!

Romeo has passed the Public Access Test. Romeo includes lifetime trainer support and eligibility to return for boarding at Balanced Obedience.
