Additional info: Blackie was part of a hoarding case recently. He's shy but very sweet and cuddly and a little confused. He has subtle brown face marking like a Mini Pin. Blackie has some fear aggression and bit a staff member when he was being removed by crate. At this time we do not recommend him for a home with kids .He would do best in a home with experienced owners only as he is undersocialized and sensitive to touch from being in a hoarder home. Despite his recent hard life he is making good progress. When he first came to us, he wouldn't walk along on the leash and would hide behind people. Now he is walking nicely with much more confidence. He wouldn't allow anyone to pet him at first and would flinch but now he sits on people's laps and comes looking for attention. He is fine left alone and has no separation anxiety. He is fine with other dogs.
