Additional info:

My name is Pumpkin! I am 4 months old, and I love to play, eat and sleep! My morning routine is to wake up in my kennel and go straight to the bathroom. After that I have my breakfast in my kennel away from my sister because I like to eat from her bowl and don’t like it when she eats from mine! After eating I play for a bit with my sister and foster siblings, then take a nice long nap next to my foster parents. I have a tiny snore when I’m super tired.

When I wake up we do a bit of training to learn how to sit, stay, and lay down. I learned how to sit in less than a day so I’m super smart! I also know how to use the puppy pad and will use the bathroom outside when I can! I take some more naps and it’s time for dinner! After dinner I like to play a bit more and watch tv. Sometimes I bark at the tv if I don’t like what I see. But I’m a pretty quiet dog according to my foster parents! When my foster parents go to bed I head into my kennel. I can sleep through the nice without any crying! Then I repeat my day again. My favorite thing is to jump on people for pets, though I’m learning that I need to sit patiently and wait for them instead. I hope you want to be my forever parents!
