My story

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

File #24-166Current Foster Location: Maitland, ON *Please note that we do not typically adopt outside of a 2 hour radius from the foster dogs current location* I'm a pint-sized pal with a turbo-charged heart. My foster mom calls me Turbo because Im always on the go, especially when theres a cat to chase! I love playing with kids and other dogs, but being the only dog in the house suits me best; Ive had some rough times with my canine siblings, so now Im learning to be confident on my own. Little humans are cool, though. My human foster siblings love to pick me up and carry me aroundI'm a great partner for tug-of-war. Im not a fan of grass. Bathroom breaks are strictly a patio or driveway affair. As you can see, Im still figuring out this housetraining thing. Im a little guy with a big personality, but if you're patient with me, Ill be the sweetest snuggle buddy youve ever had. Please visit our website www.ittakesavillagedogrescue.com to learn more about this amazing dog and to see other available dogs.
