of kisses, and stay touching you to make up for any lost time. When he is at his happiest, Theo does his big stretches and shows off his derpy smile, and will always keep you laughing. He is a very well-balanced puppy who loves spending his days and nights napping and being with you, play time, working on adding more commands to his repertoire, or whatever other adventure you had in mind.
Theo is currently living with an adult dog in foster care, and he loves playing, walking, snuggling, romping around, and doing almost anything and everything with her. He loves to follow her around and follow suit from her excellent role modeling, so we think that he would really benefit from living with another playful dog that he can grow up with to continue his socialization while he's still learning the ropes. And he loves his snuggles, even in a dog bed that's maybe meant for one and not two...
Theo is doing an amazing job with training and already has great recall skills, and knows "sit," "come," and "leave it". He is improving with his crate training and a champ with being housebroken overnight, and during the day too—as long as he is given bathroom access every 3-5 hours. He is a very food-motivated pup, and loves different enrichment and slow feeders to keep him stimulated, and sniff out each and every bite.
If you're looking for the perfect puppy to join your pack with so much love to give and a heart of gold, you've met your match in Theo!
