Meet Papis
Breed: Border Terrier
Sex: Male
DOB: 1/12/2024
Weight: 15 pounds
Health: Healthy and doing well
Papis is a charming little gentleman with bright, curious eyes and a heart full of devotion. True to his Border Terrier roots, he’s cheerful, affectionate, and quietly confident. He has a wonderful balance of playful energy and calm companionship, making him a joy to have by your side whether you’re heading out for a walk or settling in for a cozy evening at home.
Papis is friendly, loyal, and deeply people-oriented. He enjoys being included in daily activities and thrives on companionship. He’s alert and intelligent without being overwhelming, playful without being chaotic, and affectionate without being demanding. Papis is the kind of dog who wants to be near you — not necessarily on top of you — quietly soaking up love and returning it tenfold.
Border Terriers are known for:
Sweet, affectionate, and adaptable temperaments
Intelligence and eagerness to please
Moderate energy with an “on/off” switch
Strong bonds with their people
Being excellent companions for active or relaxed households
They tend to do well with consistent routines, gentle training, and regular engagement.
Papis will thrive with:
Daily walks and mental stimulation
Continued positive-reinforcement training
A stable routine and loving guidance
Plenty of affection and inclusion as a true family member
Though small, he still needs structure, exercise, and emotional connection to be his best self.
Before adopting Papis, please thoughtfully consider:
Do you have time to provide companionship and routine?
Is your housing situation secure and pet-friendly?
Are you prepared for grooming, vet care, and daily needs?
Terrier breeds can be curious and alert — engagement is key
Adoption is a lifelong promise, not a short-term decision
Even though Papis is healthy, adopters should schedule a visit with their own veterinarian as soon as possible after adoption to establish care and support a smooth transition.
First 3 days: Papis may feel unsure as he adjusts — patience and reassurance matter.
First 3 weeks: He’ll start learning your routine and settling into his new world.
First 3 months: Trust deepens, confidence grows, and he’ll truly know he’s home.
This adjustment period is completely normal and part of building a strong bond.
Papis is the kind of dog who fits right into your life and heart. He offers loyalty without demand, affection without pressure, and companionship that feels easy and genuine. With love, structure, and commitment, he will be a faithful friend who brings warmth, joy, and steady happiness to his forever home.
If you’re ready for a devoted companion with a gentle soul and a terrier’s bright spirit, Papis is ready to meet you
