Hello everyone! My name is Topper and I am 12 years young and 21 lbs – just right for my size. I’m told I’m a perfect gentleman – it must be true because I hear it all the time from my foster parents. I’m also a very good boy – I never EVER have accidents and I’m really quite good at letting you know when I need to go outside for a potty-break. I rarely bark…well, umm…except when that darn cat comes walking through my living room, I DO like to bark at her and chase her a bit so it would be best if I go to a forever home without any cats. Oh! I DO love other dogs, though, as long as they’re not too rough-and-tumble; I like their company.
I especially like the company of my humans and though I love my doggie-naps throughout the day, it’s great to have my foster mom and dad give me belly and back rubs whenever they see me. Now that I’m 12 I don’t see or hear as well as I used to. Sometimes you need to give me hand signals so I know you want me to come to you, or you have to show me around the yard and house so I don’t bump into things. It would be best if I don’t have stairs to climb, they’re very tricky for me; though I can handle a small half-step – anymore than that would be rrrruff! But I’m a fast learner so don’t let that scare you away from meeting me. I’m a mellow, quiet gentleman but my heart is full of love for everyone (except those cats, of course).
