Rebel just wants to be loved. He's happy when you come home. When he's excited he jumps a little too much, but once he's calmed down a bit he listens a little better. He knows simple commands like sit, stay, leave it, lay down, jump, easy(be gentle). His recall can use some work, he can be stubborn sometimes. He does well on a leash, though when excited he pulls once in a while. He can be a picky eater. When he was on a raw diet there were no problems. I think he does have some kind of allergies, but it was never confirmed.
