Hi, my name is Daniel ; I came to WCHS from an over-crowded shelter in Oklahoma. I am a wee bit on the shy side so I am hoping for a tranquil home with a family who will be patient and give me the time I need to blossom into a phenomenal pooch. I need someone who will confidently and strategically introduce me to new things. It will be critical for my people to use a martingale collar on me so that I do not accidentally slip way if I am startled. I will also be counting on you to keep me safe when we are out and about and ensure I cannot get out of the home or yard unsupervised. I am also hoping we can work on some confidence building; I have heard that learning new skills can help to boost a pup's self-assuredness. I do walk well on a leash and when I am out with a human I enjoy exploring; I sort of prance like a stallion. I do OK when cars pass by unless they are noisy or come upon me unexpectedly, then I get a bit unsettled. I do enjoy tasty morsels but when I am nervous, I cannot think about snacking until I relax a little. I may be small but I have a spectacular nose and really enjoy soaking in all the wonderous smells in the great outdoors. I must confess that sometimes when I am out for a walk I get the zoomies and run in circles around you; just a bouncy pupster having a grand time and burning a little energy. I am a curious chap and I do have an adventurous spirit; I just take things a tad cautiously. When we are out discovering new things, seeing new places and meeting new people I will need you to give me time to become comfortable so my true essence comes shining through. I am somewhat ‘tail-challenged' so I do not get all waggy like some other pooches who have extravagant and showy tails but you can see my joy when my whole body is relaxed and I am leaping about in ecstasy with a smile on my face. Once I invite someone into my inner circle, I am quite the lap-lover, so it works out nicely that I weigh only 18 pounds - the perfect size for almost any lap. I have been having fun joining in some of the playgroups at WCHS when all the dogs are small so I do not get overwhelmed. I may be a little reserved but I am a total sweetheart and have oodles of charm. I hope you stop by to meet me in person; we can spend a little time together and fall in love. In my foster home I play with dogs all day and it really helps me come out of my shell, I am required to go home with another dog.
