Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi there My name is Mario. I’m an 8 year old light sable colored Papillon, my brother and I lost our home when our owner died. I’m a very typical Papillon with my “love the one your with” attitude and being friendly. I’m bigger than most Papillons at 19 lbs, but I’m still a pure Papillon. All of my teeth look great, but for some reason, the top 4 are missing, but you wouldn’t know it. I’m great on a leash and I’m completely house broken. I only bark when there is a reason to (other dogs bark or I’m alarmed) but I also stop when I’m told to. I’m not big into chew toys or running around like a crazy pup but if the treat is good, I’m right there will all of my attention! I get along fine with and don’t mind the other dogs, but I’m not really interested in them. I also just 100% ignore cats, because dogs rule… I’m not sure what’s broken, but I’ve been told I’m going to be fixed soon. I’ve been rolling with the punches and I’ve adapted well to having to stay in different places. I’d really like one place to call my own for sure though. If you have room for my Papillon brother Ike, too, I’d really like that because I’ve never been without him and I’m not sure how I’d do without my little buddy.
