  • I am a boy

The good stuff

  • My best trick is being wicked smart! I pick up commands quickly with training and treats!
  • Me in three words: silly, gentle, tripawd
  • How I feel about other critters: I may be happiest as the only pet, but I can tolerate very polite cats—if there is such a thing!
  • My absolute favorite thing to do in the world is to play with my toys. I hope my new family gets me some new ones, just for me!
  • This is what I dream about when I dream about my perfect person or family: a quiet home with patient people and a backyard where I can bask in the sunshine! I really love to be outside and enjoy the fresh air. You could say it's my happy place! I'll do best as your only dog and am cat-selective. That's another way of saying I'll put up with polite cats, but no sassy ones, please! I recently became what they call a tripawd, a fancy word that means I have three legs. I'm still getting used to my new reality. Hard floors can be difficult, so maybe a home with a lot of carpet where I'm not expected to go up a lot of stairs. My home manners are superb and I'm crate trained, too! As for kids, I've not met many so I dunno. For now I think I'll really thrive in a grownup home with kind, patient, and compassionate humans who will love and accept me just as I am—like I'll do in return!
