~ ABOUT ME ~
Hi I'm Watson!! I recently found myself at a local shelter after my family decided they didn't want me anymore. I am not sure why, I am a good boy. Unfortunately they didn't take very good care of me, so it was for the best. I was skinny, stained, covered in fleas and matted. So I have a bit of a silly haircut now, from the mat removal and could use a good grooming. But I was very scared at the shelter, so the POET folks didn't want to put me through too much at once.
I am housebroken and do well with submissive dogs and cats. I am shy with strangers and will require slow interactions with them until I am comfortable. I can get overwhelmed with lots of commotion, so a quiet home would be best. Kids scare me, so a home without children or children visitors is a must for me. My ideal home is with an older, single person. I tend to bond strongly to one person, so a couple is not out of the question, but I would do better not having to share my affection.
