Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Cruz
Havanese
4/18/11
Cruz came from the 4/6 rescue. He is an eight-year-old havanese dog who weighs about 11.7 pounds. He is great with other dogs and also with children. He gets a little scared when there is a large crowd of people but other than that he’s doing very well with being socialized when people come over. He seems to be a little more timid around men than women.
Cruz would love to have a fenced yard but is good about walking on a leash to do his business. He is doing well doing his business outside provided his foster keeps him on schedule. The continued success of his potty training will rest with the consistency of his adopter in keeping him on a schedule. Since being neutered recently Cruz still wants to mark a bit but a belly band keeps this to a minimum.
His foster describes him as an absolutely wonderful dog and will make a great addition to someone’s family.
Cruz should have another social, small dog in his family so continue to show him how to be a real dog.
Please inquire about Cruz on this post or email me at kim@havaheartrescue.org
Cruz is being fostered in the Springfield area and his adoption donation is $300
