My story

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

Burrito showed up on my neighbor's porch 8 years ago. He was emaciated, shivering, wet. The neighbors took him to the local shelter where I tracked him down the next day and proceeded to adopt him. He is an energetic little man, loves to play outside (but not when it's frigid cold), go for walks, and cuddle up in the evening. Life has changed and I now have three kids, 3 year old twins and a 6 month old. We have tried and tried to get Burrito to warm up to the boys, but to no avail. He does not care to be around them. When they come at him fast trying to play, he will unfortunately snip at them. With the 6 month old starting to move around more, my wife and I have made the sad decision to try to find a home for Burrito where he can be the center of attention again, and to also avoid an injury to one of the kids. He is house trained, protective, and a good dude. He is great company and loves to be out and about just as much as he loves snuggling on the couch.
