Additional info:
Hi! My name is Zipper. I absolutely love cuddling with my foster mom. I sleep through the night too. My dog and people neighbors are my favorite. I make sure to try and say hello to everyone! I get a bit upset if they don’t stop and say hi. I love going on walks and smelling the fresh air. When I’m outside I make sure to potty and will pee on almost every tree.
I understand that sometimes people need to run errands and that’s ok. I do not have an issue being in my crate while you are gone. I’ll just take a nap while I wait for you to come back home. My favorite way to wind down at the end of the day is lying in bed with my foster mom or watching tv while she rubs my belly. Young kids overwhelm me, but I love people and older children who can approach me respectfully. There have been a few times I have snapped at and (once) bitten a human so no young kids please.
