Are you the special person Tuffy needs in his life?
Introducing Tuffy! He is an exceptionally special boy who thrives in the company of other dogs and enjoys being part of a pack. Initially, he may be a bit hesitant around humans, but once he trusts you, he will shower you with love and affection. Tuffy is not only handsome but also has a delightful sense of humor! He communicates his needs (especially when it comes to food) and will happily engage in a full conversation if you respond to him.
Tuffy is full of joy when playing, whether with you or other dogs. He gets excited and zooms around the house, returning for more playtime. In the summer, he eagerly waits by the door for walks, brimming with excitement. Tuffy is incredibly intelligent, which can sometimes lead to a touch of stubbornness; however, he learns new habits quickly. He has mastered the 'sit' command and is currently training on the “touch” command, which he picked up rapidly but still requires some reinforcement when feeling nervous.
Once Tuffy feels comfortable with you, he loves to snuggle on your lap, give gentle kisses, and curl up under the covers in bed (if permitted). He is very respectful and waits for an invitation before joining you on your lap or bed.
Tuffy does have a voice; he barks when someone approaches the door or when new people enter the house (Best Home Security Ever!). We are working on redirecting his attention to help him feel more at ease with newcomers. Interestingly, he tends to bark only at individuals who intimidate him, rather than those who respect his space. When he's ready to connect, Tuffy approaches you quickly and with enthusiasm.

Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet. *The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called 'cute' as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!
