My story

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

Please contact foster parent at kimiko.sumner@gmail.com

Romeo gets along well every dog that he has met so far! Adores 13 yr foster human sibling and is an angel with neighbors younger children. Working on leash manners, but totally manageable.

This guy is SO gentle and sweet! Very docile personality. Does get that burst of puppy energy when he wants to play and may pick up the occasional shoe or sock, but is learning “leave it” and very responsive to corrections. Overall, Romeo is a super laid back, goofy boy.

He LOVES to cuddle, just adores hugs and kisses, will come right up and bury his face in your arms/lap or rest his head on you (see photos).

Learning basic commands and doing really well with potty training - he rings his doggy doorbell and hasn’t had an accident in 2 weeks! Does well in crate & loves car rides. Bathes easy. Just overall super easy going baby!
