Personality: Ghost came in with a tough guy attitude that he has learned does not work too well. He wouldn't allow vaccinations and was har barking and growling for the first week or so. Eventually, he learned to settle down and is learning to be a gentleman. Luckily, he is very treat motivated which seems to be the way to his heart! He does have moments of reactivity in the kennel, but outside he is very sweet and gentle.
