Story
MEET BUG — BIG PERSONALITY, WORLD-CLASS SNUGGLES! Bug has never met a stranger! This affectionate, confident little guy loves meeting people and brings plenty of enthusiasm to everything he does. He enjoys his favorite stuffed toys, spending time with his dog buddies, and settling in for snuggles. Great with other dogs: Bug has met dogs of different sizes and breeds and has been friendly with them. Making excellent house-training progress: No accidents since his previous foster update! A lovely walking companion: He walks well on a leash, both alone and alongside other dogs. Friendly with children he’s met: Bug doesn’t currently live with children, but he has done well with those he’s met outside the home. Bug is still learning that cats aren’t chase partners. Fast movements can tempt him to give chase, although he’s improving with guidance. A home with cats would need careful introductions, supervision, and continued training. He can also guard bones or other prized chews around dogs, so those special treats should be enjoyed separately. Bug’s ideal home: People who enjoy companionship and cuddles—and will help him keep building good habits. He has an active personality, but his family will need to follow his veterinary team’s activity restrictions while he undergoes treatment. Medical update: Bug is heartworm positive and is currently undergoing treatment. Denkai can discuss his treatment plan, activity restrictions, and ongoing care needs with interested adopters.
