My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This little gentleman has great manners: he only chews his own toys, he does not go on furniture, he sits by the door to signal he needs to go out, and he waits in his bed prior to meals. He loves to squeak his toys, run after balls, and nap in sunbeams, but most of all, he just wants to be where his people are and be up in all the action. He also will do anything for a treat. We love this little guy, but we have received professional advice that due to guarding issues (toys, food, sometimes body) that he developed prior to joining our home, he cannot be around children, and we just welcomed our first baby. He is a great dog who will be a loyal companion and bring endless joy to the right household, which needs to be one without children or other pets and preferably in a suburban environment. He also trusts men more than women, so a male household would be an easier adjustment.
