Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Puffy is a handsome, regal boy with the most beautiful white eyelashes. But these stunning good looks wouldn't be possible without lots of beauty rest! He'll snooze while you work from home or head out for the day, and then he'll happily join you on the sofa for some tv and cuddles. He doesn't like to get a ton of exercise, but he will go outside and pounce on his favorite blue jolly ball for a few minutes and then head back in for another nap.
Puffy's dream is to be a zoo keeper - he has spent time living with cats, parrots, and giant tortoises! He has also spent lots of time working on his training. He's potty trained and knows all of his basic commands like sit, down, and place. His #1 motivation is making his people happy! Tell him he's a good boy and he'll do anything you say (treats don't hurt either).
Puffy has a neurological condition that makes him a little wobbly and means he's happier in calm, quiet environments, so he would prefer to live in a low-traffic, adult-only home. He will need to remain on the first floor of his living area. Don't worry though - wobbles can't stop this happy boy from living his best life!
