My story

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

Name, age, breed: Cappuccino, 1 year, Chinese Shar-Pei mix

Likes: Treats, people, and affection

Dislikes: Squeaky toys

What would be the ideal home? An active household who will help Cappuccino work on his obedience training, suitable for a first time owner

Good with other cats? Unknown but possibly

Good with dogs? Possibly a dog of similar size and energy level with a proper introduction

Good with children? No Children under 8

Temperament: Excited, social, sweet

Motivators? Treats and food

Any commands? Sit and lay down

House trained? Unknown

Crate trained? Unknown

How long will it take to settle into a new environment? 3-3-3 rule: First 3 days - Your dog may be overwhelmed and may hide, have a lack of appetite, or test boundaries. Give them space and time to adjust in a quiet room with their bed, food, water, and toys. 3 weeks - Your dog may start to settle in and their personality will emerge. You can expect behavior issues to arise, so set boundaries and expectations with positive reinforcement training. 3 months - Your dog should be comfortable and acclimated to your home. They should know their routine and expect meals and enrichment at specific times.

Any special needs or traits an adopter should know? Cappuccino requires mandatory obedience training, and has Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome from his short snout. No immediate treatment is required, but this puts him at a higher risk for upper respiratory infections and dental and ocular abnormalities.
