My name is Timothee!

Hi there!

My name is Timothee and I am a 2-month-old, 11lb male Great Pyrenees mix. I am a very sweet and happy-go-lucky pup, so it is hard for me to believe that I was abandoned not once but twice already in my short life. Yep, you read that right. I originally ended up in the shelter with my sibling after we were found roaming the streets. We ended up getting adopted through the shelter(separate homes) after no one came to reclaim us. The family that adopted me barely gave me any kind of chance and brought me back to the shelter saying I had "too much puppy energy for them". I was a playful pup that was finally off the streets, out of the shelter, and in a home! I just don't understand what I did so wrong to deserve to end up back in the shelter. Life has a funny way of working out though, and this time around I was welcomed to PPFT's fluffy butt program thanks to my amazing foster family volunteering to take me in. The best part about all of this? I get to just be myself. They accept me for who I am, and I can only hope that my new family...my REAL forever family is going to do the same.

Having a name is something new to me, so I find it really cool that I already have a nickname too. My foster family affectionately calls me "Tiny Wolf". Why you ask? Well, their other dog's nickname is "Big Wolf"(and yes he does look just like me, except in the big version) and you could say that I am his shadow. He has even taught me how to roll in the mud and become "camouflage" so I am less likely to be seen when trying to remain incognito when its time to come inside. You know, Great Pyrenees stuff. ;)

I know my last family said I was too much puppy for them...odd right? Anywho, I really am not sure what about me wasn't to their liking. I am actually a pretty well tempered pup. Sure, I have a happy-go-lucky personality and always want to be where my people are, but overall I would say I am a good mix of playful and calm. I have my moments when I love to play and have fun, and then I have my moments where I just want to cuddle and relax. Now, I am a big fan of playing with toys but I see no point in trying to chase them down in a game called "fetch". It's just not my thing. As I am sure you caught above, I do love rolling around in mud and splashing around in water so I would say I am a water dog. What is the point of having such a lovely white coat if I don't make a masterpiece out of it with some lovely mud splatters? On the bright side, my coat should be self-cleaning so soon it will be all nice and white again...ready for me to start anew...and your floors...well let's just say they will have some extra love from me...fur and dirt wise. ;) I am too young to have experienced ever getting to go place with my family. I do think I would enjoy it and do quite well though. Getting to meet new people, see other dogs, and get to hang out with my family...it sounds like a dream come true! I don't really have much experience with that weird rope thing that my foster sometimes clips to my collar. It's like she expects me to walk with her on it, but why would I want to do that when there are so many different scents to check out? Maybe one day I will understand the point of such a silly contraption. If you aren't into the whole "leaving your house thing" no worries. I only just discovered the joy of being inside so can't say I would be opposed to living more of a homebody life. As long as you were interactive with me or had another playful dog for me to help get my energy out, I think the homebody life could really be where it is at.

I am good with other dogs, cats, and kids. I love them all. I cannot say I love one of them more than the other. I love getting to play with the other dogs and follow them around. I also love getting to cuddle with the teenager in my foster home though too, she really does a great job of making me feel loved and protected. I even like the creatures that go "meow". I don't think I have won them over quite yet, but I do think I will win them over one day! One of my favorite things to do is just to be with my people. I will cuddle with them, follow them around while they do chores, and just make sure they know that I am always there to lend a paw. So, if my new family had no other pets but were around a lot, I would still be a very happy boy.

I don't really know much about them, but I could see myself rocking apartment life. I have been told that if I ended up in an apartment setting my new family would really need to be ready to work with me on my leash skills(once again..what the heck is the purpose of that) and understand that without a yard I will need a good avenue in place to help get my energy out. I am working on my potty training still. In the past, I have always been able to go wherever I pleased, because I was never in the house before. So, I am learning that apparently it is frowned upon to pee in the middle of the hallway but I would say I am catching on fairly quickly. Going outside seems way more exciting anyway. I have been introduced to the kennel and do well. As far as chewing goes, I hope you don't expect me to say that I am some kind of unicorn puppy and won't get into your stuff. What can I say? I am young and curious! I do love my toys and try my best to stick to them, but sometimes that tasty stinky shoe of yours just looks too tasty to resist! ;)

Well, I guess that is it. I don't really have anything else to share about myself. I guess I would like to leave a request though. I know I am cute, and I know right now it seems like a good idea to adopt a fluffball such as myself. But make sure it will be a good idea for the rest of our lives. I have already been an "UNTIL" dog twice now. I don't want to be one ever again. If you adopt me, I want to be your FOREVER dog. I want to be the one who cuddles you when you are sad, who stands by your side through thick and think. I want to be the one who makes you smile, and most of all I just want someone who is going to love me as much as I love them! <3

Thanks for listening

Timothee
