Overall Impression:

Balerion is a dog with a mix of balanced social traits and some sensitivities. His moderate scores in social attraction, following, and social dominance suggest he interacts well with people and is generally comfortable in social settings. However, his high scores in retrieving, touch sensitivity, sound sensitivity, and sight sensitivity indicate potential challenges. He may struggle with physical handling, loud noises, and visual distractions. Balerion would thrive in a stable and understanding environment where his sensitivities are managed with care and where his strong-willed nature is met with firm and consistent training. He may not be the best fit for a home with a lot of noise or frequent changes, but with the right support, he could be a loyal and engaging companion.
