MICHAEL's Story
Hi I'm Michael! I know I'm super cute but really the best things about me are my smarts and my loyalty! True to my breed group, I am a Velcro boy through and through! I want to follow you everywhere and be a part of everything you are up to. I think I would do best in a home with another social, energetic dog, though it's not a requirement for me. I think it would help me get my energy out, teach me not to be so nippy when excited, show me the ropes of dog life, and gain confidence when I see strangers approaching. I would love a home where someone is home a good deal of time so I have activites to do and people to follow around. I can be in a crate for short periods of time but would likely not thrive having to be in one full time due to my need for enrichment. I am working on potty training and catching on quickly, though if you don't see my signals, I will have accidents inside. I love to keep busy, a good mix of physical and mental activity will keep me happy and help me settle down when needed. I can get overstimulated and then I get a little extra bitey so I'm working on channeling that into toys, puzzle games, or redirecting to focus on humans. I loooooove TREATOS and they help me focus. A home with breed group experience would be helpful, but not required. It's unknown how I would do with cats, so slow intros would be needed. I do get a little extra nippy sometimes so I need a home without young children.
