My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Stanley gets along great with other dogs. We have not tested him with cats yet, as there are none in his foster home. He’s not much of a kisser (his foster mom is the only one he’s given a few kisses to). He LOVES to cuddle. He will paw at your leg when he wants you to pick him up, and then he nuzzles his head right on your chest. He’ll lay there for hours if you allow him to! We haven’t heard a peep out of him!... No barking, whining, etc. Stanley is crate-trained. He loves going for walks and he gets super excited when he sees you going to grab his leash. Most of the time he sleeps and does his own thing. He definitely doesn’t need to be occupied with something. A nice comfy bed and blanket are fine by him. Stanley also has a healthy appetite. Stanley has had a few seizures since being in our rescue, and we are seeking veterinary care and advice to figure out what is going on and how to make him comfortable. One of them seems to have caused a slight head tilt which he could have forever. We think it just adds to his charm! As you can see, Stanley is a happy guy and doesn't even notice!
