Special traits that others should know about your foster:
Mickey made his journey here very last minute. When I say last minute I mean the night before transport! The shelter threw him on the bus knowing he had no foster to go but knew one of would give in! The only reason they did this due to Mickey being on the euthanasia list. As I opened my messenger I saw will you take a puppy and my door is always open! So Mickey made his way to my house in Delaware!
Mickey is one ball of fun! You will never have a dull moment with this boy! He keeps you on your toes and by that I mean watch your feet because he always one step into your shoe! He loves being with his human and spending lots of time exploring!
Mickey loves his bones and toys which are key to play for him! He’s wants lots of enrichment and entertainment. Which leads to a good point of training! He is very food and toy driven meaning training is super easy for him! He loves learning new things as long as you can keep him focused on you!
Mickey has a a white paw on the front left side which makes him looks like he’s wearing a sock! I imagine if he was a kid he would be running around wearing 1 out of his 2 socks so it’s fits his personality perfect! Mickey is ready for his forever home! Ready to spread his positive and loving energy! You can’t help but laugh when hanging out with Mickey!
