He’s soft as a plush toy, shaped like a warm little loaf, and as sweet and silly as his name suggests.<br/><br/>Daily Rhythm & Routine<br/><br/>Pecan Pie starts his day bright and early at 6am with a quick potty break before heading inside for breakfast and his first burst of goofy morning energy. He’ll zoom around, explore absolutely everything, and occasionally test the world with his teeth—he’s a baby, after all—but he stops immediately when told “No.” He settles into a steady rhythm throughout the day: a couple of hours of play, followed by a nap, then outside again for potty time and more play in the yard or indoors.<br/><br/>He eats most of his meals by late morning and gets dinner around 5pm. Bedtime is around 8pm, with a quick 11pm potty break before sleeping soundly through the night in his pen or crate.<br/><br/>Personality & Progress<br/><br/>On his first couple days without any littermates, he was understandably a bit nervous and confused, but by day three, he had begun to trust that he was truly safe— much calmer, more confident, and able to settle for periods of independent play.<br/><br/>He has a wonderfully expressive mind and watching him learn the world is a joy (barking at his reflection - hey, who's that?!) He’s sunshine, silliness, and curiosity bundled into a soft, wiggly body.<br/><br/>Pecan Pie is loving, social, and affectionate. He enjoys being held like a baby and becomes completely calm when carried— an endearing habit that will make anyone fall for him.<br/><br/>He is definitely a teething puppy and loves exploring the yard and chewing on sticks and roots. He'll need lots of chew toys indoors to gnaw on! He rarely barks except when seeking attention or when spooked by his reflection.<br/><br/>Why He’s Special<br/><br/>His foster describes him as soft, weighted, and wonderfully comforting to hold— like a living plush toy. He’s adorable now and will be just as sweet as he grows. There’s something genuinely heartwarming about him, and whoever adopts him is getting a one-of-a-kind little companion.
