My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Curly Fry is a tank, a loyal friend, a fun-seeking pup, an athlete, and a wonderful dog. He loves toys more than treats or pets, but he prefers to play with a human than playing alone, though he will play alone as long as he's had some time playing with his human first. His favorite toys/treats are benebones and tennis balls/plush toys that he will eventually destroy (best to monitor him with anything he can tear up). He does enjoy safe chewing options like bully sticks and yak cheese, but these are not as valuable to him as other toys. The only reason he would not do well with children is because his obsession with play and toys can easily tip into frustration behaviors that might be scary or unpleasant for a child (pawing at his person and grabbing things from their hands, if the person who lives with him is not consistent with how they play with him--we ask him to sit for every throw and have him settle after playtime). Curly is living in a foster home and is doing so great. He lives in a home with dogs, but he has not been introduced to them because of their behavior. He is excellent at ignoring them if they walk by an area he is in and may do well with pups. If you have another dog, we would be happy to do further testing and do introductions with your dog.
