Toad

My story

Name, age, breed: Toad, 3 months, boxer mixLikes: lots of cuddles, belly rubs, snuggling with his blanketDislikes: being left aloneWhat would be the ideal home? a home that can give Toad the attention and cuddles he needs, space to run around and people to interact withGood with other cats? UnsureGood with dogs? He is great with his puppy mate, he has met other dogs as well and, while nervous at first, has been greatGood with children? He has met a couple young children on walks before and has been greatTemperament: Playful and loveable: He has spurts of activity and is very playful but when he gets tired he turns into a snugglebug and loves a cuddle. He also LOVES meeting new people and always greets them with a tail wag and doggy kisses. He doesn’t love being by himself and will often come and nap in the same room as you.Motivators? Treats, toys, sticks and cuddlesAny commands? He has learnt sit and will run into his crate if I point at it and say ‘crate’. I have started clicker training him, so he has learned that ‘click’ = ‘reward’ and has a solid foundation to continue clicker trainingHouse trained? Working on it, but he is still only little. He knows outside means potty but occasionally has accidentsCrate trained? Yes. He sleeps in his crate overnight and sometimes likes to go in there during the day. He also eats all his meals in his crate. He is learning the command for crate but still sometimes has to be lured in with some treats or toysHow long will it take to settle into a new environment? As long as he is around people it should take him absolutely no time to get settled.Any special needs or traits an adopter should know? He is still little so definitely still needs some more training but he has the foundation to continue clicker training!If you think Toad is the one for you - fill out an application today!
