Personality:
Jona Lomu is a big-hearted, friendly boy who loves nothing more than being around his people. He’s social, people focused, and always happy to soak up attention and interaction wherever he can get it. When he’s not hanging out with his humans, you’ll often find him happily lounging about with a toy, content to just munch on it and enjoy the simple life. He’s got that easy going charm that makes him a joy to have around, mixing playful moments with a relaxed, laid back nature that’s hard not to smile at.
Tamariki – 10+ as easily excitable and can be cautious of loud noises and sudden movements.
Cats – Not yet assessed.
Kūri – Interested and polite but unsure. Further socialisation needed.
Stock/poultry – Untested.
Size – Currently 16.3kgs and is likely to mature large in size.
Ideal home:
Jona Lomu is looking for a social, active home where he can be included as part of the family and involved in everyday life and adventures. He will thrive with good daily exercise, space to stretch his legs, and people who are keen to continue his training and socialisation in a positive, consistent way. He would likely enjoy having another friendly dog in the home to hang out with and learn from, as he is very socially inclined and enjoys canine company. Jona isn’t the type to be left out in the backyard on his own, he wants to be part of the action, whether that’s walks, outings, or just hanging out with his favourite people.
Big personality, bigger heart, and ready to be someone’s best mate for life 🐾❤️
