Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Nick was adopted November 2021!
Nick is the sweetest puppy and loves to cuddle. He is a fast learner and is motivated by treats. He is a chill pup and well-behaved. He sleeps well in a crate, and doesn't play with or chew items he shouldn't. He is very attentive on walks, likes to explore, and people watch out the house window. He does like to speak when he sees or hears people, but will calm down if you encourage him to.
He is still working on potty training and takes frequent bathroom breaks for the time being. We discovered Nick has a birth defeat where his rib cage is malformed and it puts him at higher risk of a lung/heart injury if any type of big trauma were to occur there. Because of that, he would do best with older kids (over 12 years) and smaller or no other dogs.
Nick's stats:
Actual Weight: 6.4 lbs
Actual Age: 9 months
Good with kids: Unknown
Good with dogs: Yes
Good with cats: Unknown
Fenced yard required: Preferred
OK for townhouse or apartment: Yes
House trained: Working on it
Crate trained: Yes
Barks when left alone: No
Chews inappropriate items: No
Training: knows "sit" and "no"
Activity Level: Medium-Low
If you are interested in Nick, consider letting us know by filling out a (no-obligation) adoption application. Please consult our Adoption FAQ before contacting us.
