Meet Pierre.<br/><br/>Pierre loves to snuggle and is such an affectionate boy. He loves belly rubs and making snorty noises. Pierre is more of a morning guy, when the sun comes up, he is ready to play and go for a nice stroll around town. Pierre is not a demanding fellow, in fact his foster family describes him as gentle, sweet, and calm. He just wants to be spending time with his people, so a home where he can sleep while you work would be his dream.<br/><br/>Pierre loves adventure…. if that adventure includes his family. Where you are going, he is happy to go along with, if he’s with his family, he is game for it all! Pierre is not looking for any solo adventures, he’s up to explore in the car, on foot, you name it, IF its with his humans. Pierre gets along with other dogs and animals and has not shown a prey drive, so if you are looking for a patio buddy and inside pal he’s your guy. <br/><br/>Pierre is a brachycephalic dog, so that means he will be a snorty, snoring dog, so you might need earplugs! Experience with brachycephalic dogs is a MUST as he will need to be watched in the hot months for overheating and he will need a home with air conditioning to keep cool and comfortable in the summer. <br/><br/>Pierre is the kind of dog that won’t get into trouble, but also will plant his feet if he is not ready to move. He will be patient and won’t be demanding (which is wonderful when you have to dress him up for the cold), he is even patient with his baths! He will also expect you to wait for him when he is not ready, some people call that stubborn, and that may be, but Pierre is determined and sometimes he wonders if you are in fact the inflexible one to his wishes? Pierre views walks as ‘his walk’ so sometimes you need to be patient, cause you may be going on a long walk if he gets his long walk spurts. Pierre loves food and is an extremely social fellow.<br/><br/>If Pierre sounds like a good match for you, please fill out an application at: covetedcanines.org/application
