My name is
Belyash!

Hi, my name is Belyash!

I am seeking a family that will give me time to warm up and come out of my shell. I have spent my first year of life with my family in their home and backyard. Since I was not exposed to a lot of things I can find loud noises and quick movements scary at first. When I meet new people in the house I can be shy at first. Have them offer me some yummy treats and I will take them and realize they are safe to me. Since I'm a little nervous I need to have a crate available in the house for me to escape to when the situation feels overwhelming. I go in there to assess the situation and emerge when I am ready for more interaction. I'm still learning how to walk confidently on leash when out and about. I startle easily and try to run away so a secure fitting harness is a must.

I love to run around and play with toys and people (once I know them). After playtime, you can find me snuggling with people or chewing on bones. So far I haven't met a toy, ball, or bone I don't like. I'm a pro at dragging everything out of the toy boxes and spreading them throughout the house though I'm not really interested in learning to put my stuff away. Haha.

I really like other dogs of any size, it's all playtime and cuddles. It has been reported that I am good with cats and other small animals. My foster mom doesn't have any in the home so she can't vouch for that.
