Papacito's Story

Papacito is:<br/>Neutered: Yes!<br/>Up to date on vaccines: Yes!<br/>Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized<br/><br/>More about Papacito:<br/>Housebroken: Yes!<br/>Crate trained: He has been doing well in his crate for up to 5-6 hours<br/>Leash walking: Doing well!<br/>Dog social: Yes! He lives with a resident dog in his foster home and has also enjoyed participating in dog playgroups at our Adoption Center. He is playful and would love an equally playful dog pal!<br/>Cat social: Unknown<br/>Kid friendly: Unknown<br/><br/>Papacito likes:<br/>- Bringing you a toy to signal when it's playtime<br/>- Chilling with his people on the couch, ideally with snuggles involved<br/>- Learning new things<br/><br/>Papacito is a playful, affectionate pup with a heart full of love and a gentle, respectful soul. He'd be thrilled to have a playful doggy sibling, but he's also perfectly content as a solo dog - as long as he gets plenty of love from his humans! He's currently living with a resident dog who prefers her space, and he's incredibly respectful of her boundaries, happily coexisting without pushing for play.<br/><br/>He hasn't had direct contact with cats in his foster home, but shows zero interest in the neighborhood cats he sees outside - making him a potentially good candidate for a cat-friendly home.<br/><br/>Papacito thrives on routine and finds comfort in knowing what to expect. He's had zero indoor accidents and always does his business outside. While he prefers shorter potty walks in the heat of the day, he's happy to go for longer strolls in the cooler mornings and evenings.<br/><br/>This sweet boy is crate-trained and does wonderfully with a frozen Kong or chew toy. In fact, he's so in tune with his routine that he walks right into his crate when he sees a Kong - he knows it's time to settle! He's also done well being left in a dog-safe room, where he cozied up on the couch for a nap.<br/><br/>Papacito may need a day or two to adjust to a new environment, and did show some mild separation whining early on, but once he knows the routine, he becomes incredibly low maintenance. He's rarely mouthy (only a couple of times, and only when meds were involved), and was easily redirected with a toy or chew.<br/><br/>Enrichment is key for Papa - he loves mealtime puzzles like snuffle mats, lick mats, and frozen feeders, which help him settle and feel at ease.<br/><br/>All in all, Papacito is a sweet, loyal companion who's just looking for someone to love him and give him the stability he craves. If you're patient in those first few days and ready to give him a little time to adjust, you'll be rewarded with one of the most loving, easygoing dogs you could hope to meet.<br/><br/>Papacito's adoption fee is $300, and he is ready to give his love to his person!<br/><br/>Next steps: Email adopt@onetail.org with questions, or submit an application online and we'll be in touch to schedule a meeting: https://www.onetail.org/apply-to-adopt/<br/><br/>*** Our adoption application stays on file for one year and can apply to any dog in our program. Once the app is submitted you will receive an email within 48-72 hours. For additional questions, email adopt@onetail.org ***
