Story
Hello to my future family! My name is Soldier Boy, part of “The Boys” Litter at the Rescue Crew. My momma (Queen Maeve/Edee) had us while s stray…outside in the cold up north. But, after a few days, we were transported to the Twin Cities had had a great setup for the start of our lives. I have five other siblings, all posted here (but you should totally choose me!). In the pictures, you can see my breed makeup as someone kindly donated a kit to our foster mom. I am the best mutty-mutt-mix! I am definitely the best at following orders (instructions), and do everything to learn fast so I can please my human mom!
My foster home has so many dogs, and it is a great socialization experience for me. I love the resident dogs (9-yo female Lab, 5-yo male Pittie, 11-month female Great Pyrenees). My mom was also here for a while, and also a bunch of puppies from another litter (one left, Scylia). We all get along really well…one big happy doghouse family. I love spending time with the other puppies, but I like to stay close to foster mom so I can get those pets and cuddles for being a good boy!
As a puppy, I am still getting used to lots of things. We are working on kennel training, and I eat my meals and treats in my kennel…and because of that, I realize my kennel is a super awesome place. I’m always excited for food and foster mom says I am a great eater (not picky at all)! I also LOVE treats. My favorites are cold baby carrots, frozen chunks of watermelon, and sweet potato chips! Potty training is going super well! I have learned to ring the bell to potty outside, but sometimes I just ring it to go outside…I don’t get treats when I do that. While I had some accidents inside, I am getting much better at going outside, otherwise I just blame it on the other puppies!
I love toys, especially the squeaky or crinkly ones. My ultimate favorite thing is falling asleep on foster moms lap…I definitely want to be a lap dog! We have started some training, and we are working on impulse control also. I am really good at being patient for food or treats by sitting nicely. Foster mom says I am super smart and will do anything for a treat (=easy to train!). I have learned to not bite/nip at the humans, and that I only get pets and love when I have “four on the floors” (not jumping!). Foster mom also says I have the recall of a champ because I know when I “come” I get treats! But mostly, I am just being a puppy and having a good time. I also have not destroyed anything, and for that, foster mom is super proud!
Are you the family for me? Maybe you have a kid who needs a dog? Or maybe you just want the ultimate cuddler (my whole litter are master cuddlers!). I am super smart and obedient, and am the best at controlling my impulses. I would do great with any family, with or without kids, with or without other dogs. As long as I am a part of the family and can be a lap dog, I will be your best friend! Fill out an app to meet me…you won’t be disappointed!
