Story
Meet Napoleon Dynamite! And yes, the name fits, this little guy has clearly been practicing his dance moves because he loves standing up on his hind legs and prancing around the house.
Napoleon may be small, but he’s got a big personality that’s starting to shine more and more every day. Once he feels safe, he turns into a goofy, playful little guy who loves bouncing around you, going for walks, zooming in the backyard, and scratching himself against your feet.
Napoleon’s past hasn’t been the easiest. Before coming to us, he survived a serious attack from another dog and was covered in wounds. Because of that, he’s still a little sensitive around bigger dogs and would likely be happiest as the only dog in his home. In his foster home he does coexist with the resident dogs who politely ignore him, and he loves his foster cat sibling and we think he’d do well with feline siblings!
Watching his confidence grow has been pretty special.Napoleon can be shy when meeting new people, but once you’re in his circle he’s a sweet, loyal little shadow. He’s especially fond of the ladies and has loved every woman he’s met so far—as long as they move slowly and give him a moment to get comfortable. Men are still a bit scary for him right now, but he is learning that they come with lots of tasty treats.
He’s doing wonderfully with the basics, he’s quiet as a mouse in his crate, appears to be potty trained, and has been great with gentle handling like being picked up when his foster mom needs to.
Most of all, Napoleon just needs a patient home that will let him keep building confidence and show the silly, loving dog we know he is.
