Are you looking for a super snuggler, sidekick, or shadow? If so, I am your pup! My absolute favorite thing is people—following them, playing with them, being in their lap, sleeping on them…anything involving people! I love toys, chews, and food too. I’m still learning that hands/feet aren’t toys and that I shouldn’t jump when I get excited. For that reason I think I’d do better around older kids while I grow. I’m a very smart puppy! I get some of my food and treats in food puzzles and I’m really good at those. I figured them out very quickly! I know sit, shake, and lay down already. I also know kennel, but I don’t usually want to go in, but only because I don’t want to be alone. I will settle in my kennel after I cry but then I might wake up from a nap and realize you’re gone and cry again. I do better if I can see someone, I just prefer to be with the humans! I would love it if someone was home a lot to hang out with me! I am working hard on potty training. I still sometimes have a pee accident but I am figuring out quickly to let the humans know I need to go by going to the back door. I don’t really like the cold or wet too much but I will go out to do what I have to. I haven’t been around many other dogs yet but with proper introductions it might be fun to have a playmate. I do love soaking up all the attention myself too. I can still be a bit cautious in new situations but I’m curious and warm up quickly. With some patience, love, and training, I will grow up to be a super smart and loyal best friend. Will you be my bestie? *AHCR cannot guarantee any breed/possible breed of the dogs in our care or the size they will be full grown.
