My story

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

From his Foster Family:
Toulouse is doing great! After about a day or two, he warmed up and started getting more comfortable as noted by barking at us when entering a room - ha! He LOVES our other dog and is his literal shadow. If dodger stretches, Toulouse stretches. If dodger scratches, Toulouse scratches... you get the jist! I think a home with another dog to help show him the ropes is a necessity!!!

He still seems to be very hesitant with us, as people. He will take treats out of our hands and has started to reduce the running away from us when we need to pick him up, but he still doesn't willingly let us touch him or pet him with ease. He will lay against our legs if they're under a cover which makes me think he has no idea that it's actually our legs under there lol! No issues with the leash! I think he doesn't like it because he doesn't want to be close to people but, we've practiced walking on the leash on the enclosed patio and he eventually gives in and doesn't immediately try to run away.

Still working on potty training. He loves to go outside and potty (and follows dodger every time he goes) but, the boy also loves to mark everything so likes to tinkle inside to mark his territory. No food aggression at all! He and dodger eat out of the same bowl and it's all good! No issues with the cats. He understands it's their space and hasn't paid them a lick of attention!

Small, but steady, progress for sure! He is such a sweet boy and I think once comfortable, will be so loyal to his people!!!
