Story
C3PO is a timid baby who was brought to the shelter after wandering around for a couple of days. He is a sweet baby but needs someone to help him build his confidence. He has not been well socialized so he's quick to hit the ground or hide behind you if something scares him. He is already 35 pounds at 3 months old so it's important that his new family can work with him now before he's too big to pick up and carry when he's too afraid to move. He is doing better every day (leashes used to be terrifying and he's able to walk now). He loves other dogs but if they are too pushy, he melts into a puddle. He is gentle enough to live with small children but we are recommending older calmer kids just because a toddler tantrum or a noisy, running child would probably terrify him. He's going to be more work than the average puppy, but if you meet him, his sweet personality will melt your heart!
