Pierogi

My story

Hello! My name is Pierogi!I`m a loyal and fun boy with a charming personality! I can be nervous of new people but warm up nicely as long as they give me space (and toss me a few yummy treats). I am affectionate with my humans and enjoy cuddling and leaning into bum scratches. I can be jumpy when I`m excited (who isn`t!?) or stressed. I`m very smart and treat-motivated and it has made learning and training not only successful but also fun for me and my GHS humans. I`m a pretty easy guy who will be happy with some outdoor sniffing adventures followed by some play and snuggles.MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…CHILDREN: No, adult-only given I can be sensitive.OTHER DOGS: No, I seem to be a bit stressed around other dogs. But with an easy-going dog and a gradual introduction, I may be able to have a walking buddy down the road.CATS: Potentially, with a cat confident around large dogs and an owner committed to a gradual introduction. I have shown some interest in chasing wildlife but my history with cats is unknown.FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: I would do best with humans who have previous dog experience.FENCED-IN YARD: Recommended since I can get stressed around other dogs. The fenced yard gives a break from relying on leash walks.HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: No apartment buildings or areas where dogs will inevitably come into my personal bubble.SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: Not necessarily.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME…ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium.HOUSE-TRAINED: Yes.If you think I could be a good match for your home, click the “Adopt Me” button to apply!FOSTER ME!
