About
This little boy is very sweet. He gets along fine with other dogs, but he is a people dog and he just wants to snuggle with his person. He is potty trained. He is a little timid outside a fenced area and seems to only want to go on walks with “his” person. He is fine exploring a little, but pulls back and won't advance unless his person is ahead of him. I tried walking him with one of my dogs, but he would only go ~20 ft, then pull back and not advance, pulling back to go inside. When tethered in the front yard, he will explore a little, but heads back to the door within a few minutes. He is definitely an inside dog. Over the 3 days that I've had him, he ate very little kibble but ate all the topper. He likes some treats, but doesn't seem to be particularly motivated by them. When told to get off the chair/couch, he will comply, but sometimes growl quietly to let you know that he's not happy. The same when he's told to go into the xpen at night. No aggression, just letting you know that he's not happy. He doesn't seem to like loud voices, e.g., when I call for one of my kids (or talking loudly to one in another room), he barks. He also seems to be afraid/intimidated by males, especially when they tower over him. He barks in warning, but calms down when they come down to his level. Overall, he's a very good boy. I feel that he would be happiest in a home where he will be the only pet as he really only cares about people and would love to cuddle all the time.
