Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Age: 1.5 years
Weight: 10lbs
Dog friendly: Yes
Cat friendly: Likely fine
Kid friendly: Calm, respectful kids
Potty trained: Figuring it out!
Crate trained: Yes!
Adoption fee: $695
** PHYSICALLY FENCED YARD AND A COMPANION DOG REQUIRED**
Valiente means “brave one,” and this little man lives up to his name every day. At his core, Valiente is sweet, lovable, playful, and full of fun.
Valiente is learning new skills every day. He has discovered the joy of toys, chew bones, and romping with other dogs. He also enjoys cozy couch snuggles. He loves treats and takes treats directly from a hand when he is feeling extra brave.
Like many dogs coming from a puppy mill background, he has an extra layer of caution and distrust layered over that happy base personality. This is already melting away with consistency and kindness, and he will continue to thrive with a patient, understanding adopter who lets him move at his own pace. He will need a fenced yard that is secure for a small dog to keep him safe as he continues to learn about the world.
He's doing really well with going potty outside, but doesn't know how to signal when he needs to go out. Frequent potty breaks and supervision have helped us have accident free days (even in the negative temps!).
He is not yet leash trained and will need support with that, but he rides very well in the car. At night, he sleeps quietly in an x-pen next to the bed.
Valiente recently had a dental, so that is already taken care of for his future family.
