My story

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

--FOSTER PUPDATE--
Ralphie A169647
40 lbs. neutered male, approx 11 months

This handsome boy goes by Pupino in his foster home, and he is just a sweetie!
- Quick learner who already knows sit, shake, and leave it. He's eager to learn more and easily motivated by food
- He gets along great with dogs of all sizes, cats, and kids. He’s currently living happily with two dogs and a cat. Slow introductions always recommended.
- Like most pups, he has bursts of energy followed by serious nap time. For his age, though, he’s pretty chill!
- Housebroken and trustworthy. He doesn’t need a crate as long as food is put away. He won’t chew your furniture and is content to nap while you’re out.
- As with any puppy, he needs a little more polishing with his training to be a star citizen. He's a professional counter inspector and garbage bandit, but receptive to training.
- He sleeps through the night like a champ—in his bed or yours. Spooning is his preferred sleep position!
- He loves car rides and is great on leash, making him an excellent walking and adventure buddy.
