If you’re looking for the cutest boy in the world, I have him for you!
We affectionally call him Andy Roo and he is the sweetest and cuddliest little man. He follows me everywhere I go and up for any kind of adventure.
He is learning so quickly how to sit for his food and house training, and he sleeps in his kennel all night without a peep! He gets along wonderfully with all dogs he meets. He knows his place and learns quickly from them when being corrected. No food aggression but he gets very excited for mealtimes and gulp it down very fast. We have started him on a slow feeder bowl and working on manners with food.
Andy loves his walks, and he walks amazing on a leash already. He enjoys hanging outside in the yard and just watching the world go by. He does not bark outside or dig; he is very content just laying on the deck.
He loves the bathtub, grooming and lets us trim his nails fine. He is good in the car and just lays down and sleeps. Truly there is nothing that phases him. He is just all around easy going.
He is still a puppy so he’s very mischievous and his curiosity lands him in a bit of a pickle sometimes. He stays close by and just wants to be with his people and his pack. He has been tested with agility training and he would thrive in this kind of training. He is very food motivated and will do anything for a treat. Andy also loves kids, and I would say older kids as he can get very excited and can be jumpy. He needs lots of toys to distract from this behavior. He has been with a work from home foster Mama and not used to be left alone too long. He does like his kennel and will settle in there quickly. I think Andy would be best with a family and another dog as he loves having play mates!
