A bit about Sonny from his foster ?

He is
Extremely affectionate and lap-dog oriented
Very food motivated which makes training enjoyable
Smart but with a charming goofy streak
Alert and vocal, but will stop when asked
Confident for his size
He absolutely loves attention and gets very excited to see his people. He thrives on interaction and being included in daily life.
? Social Skills
Good with people and fine with kids 5+ who understand how to behave around dogs
Gets along well with cats on his property
Enjoys dogs he connects with
May bark at other dogs while on lead, mostly from excitement and wanting interaction
Small but will not back down if challenged by a bigger dog
He has a low prey drive and anything he is used to, he behaves well around. With regular exposure he continues to improve.
¦ Lifestyle
Loves his walks
Moderate energy with strong cuddle mode at home
Mid-level recall and currently working on focus training
Needs clear boundaries and consistent structure
He would suit a home that enjoys daily walks and positive reinforcement training.
? Coat & Care
Short soft coat
Easy to maintain
Quick regular brushes recommended
White fur benefits from rinsing to keep bright
Not afraid of water and gaining confidence each time he swims
? Ideal Home
He would thrive in:
A family home with kids over 5
A home with a calm dog friend
A cat home
Someone who enjoys an affectionate, people-focused companion
He may annoy older dogs with his enthusiasm, so a tolerant dog friend would suit best.
This boy is incredibly loving, very loyal, and happiest when close to his humans. With continued training and structure, he will make an amazing lifelong companion.
