What kind of home would be best for me? Andre longs for a patient, loving, and kind adopter to work with him on his commands as he develops into your loving life-long companion. Andre will do well in either an apartment or house. He does well with dogs and cats but would prefer to be an only pet so he can get all the love. Andre doesn't care if his new home is with a solo adopter, a couple, or a family. All he wants is for someone to be home with him most, if not all day so he can soak up all the love you have to offer hm

What is my personality like? Andre is a six-year-old little orange and white cutie looking for a forever home. He came to us as a breeder release but is a very calm guy. If he had a theme song it would be The Beatles "All You Need is Love." He loves being with a human, especially when he's picked up, put in their lap, and loved on. That is his absolute favorite thing in the world. Andre walks on a leash but could use leash training. He will need to be taught his basic commands such as sit, stay, down, come, and the like.

Andre has been with us just a short time, but we have found him to be a clam little guy. He gets along well with other dogs and cats. He hasn't exhibited the typical Pom personality, but it may yet emerge as he adjusts to his surroundings. Typically, Poms are playful, energetic, loving, loyal, outgoing, and quite intelligent. This mean they require plenty of training to help them be social and to ensure good behavior.

How do I act when I first meet new people? Andre won't rush to greet people he first encounters, but he loves to be picked up and put in your lap to be loved on. When you put him down you may find him leaning against you. He loves people and like to feel their presence. If he doesn't get your attention that way you'll probably find two little paws and a tiny head placed on your chair demanding attention. But that's Andre. He's a little love bug that just can't get enough loving.

Other tips and tidbits: Andre arrived in rescue as part of a large hoarding case. Based on his overall health and condition he is estimated at 6 years old. We celebrate his birthday 4/19/2018.

House trained? Dogs can be house trained if they are in the right environment and are allowed to follow a schedule if a physical reason doesn't keep them from being trained. A dog house trained in my home may not be in yours. We will help you teach your new dog this necessary skill and based on your schedule.
