59 lbs. Nacho is very sweet, likes playing with toys, and does well with his Frosted friends in our play yard. Nacho went on a two-week Frosted Fling and is such a special boy, his Fling Family has decided to foster him until he has a forever home. They report: "Over the past month, Nacho has fit in so well that we decided to foster him until he finds his forever family. Things he wants his future family to know: - He's potty trained, crate trained and sleeps through the night. Walks nicely on a loose leash, listens to "no" or "uh uh", and rarely barks at all. He's basically perfect! - He's a foodie with perfect manners! While there's nothing he loves more than food (dog food, treats and people food alike), he sits politely waiting for you to feed him. No jumping or barking or counter surfing here. And he's not picky. We've been feeding him dry dog food with no complaints. and he didn't seem to mind when we switched brands either. For snacks, he particularly likes raw carrots or strawberries but has also enjoyed scrambled eggs, turkey, rice, bananas, blueberries, green beans, pumpkin and cream cheese. - He's a strong chewer! Has gotten the ears or legs off most stuffy toys in our house in seconds flat. And those "long lasting" chews that are meant to keep dogs busy for a while somehow disappear in mere minutes with this guy. When we first got him, he didn't know what to do with a Kong, but he's since come around and we alternate that into his routine. - He could be an only furbaby but could easily get along with a dog sibling as well. He hasn't tried to snuggle with our dog (to be fair, she's not the snuggling type) but they do play well together, and he doesn;t seem to have any resource guarding issues. - He would like his own couch please. He still wont jump up on the couch unless we're NOT in the room. If we lift him up to join us, he'll make himself comfortable as long as you continue to pet him. We tend to lift him up because he does come over seeking pets, but then flops down just out of reach on the floor. - He rides great in the car but isn't keen on getting OUT of the car. We haven;t figured this one out yet. He can easily jump in (even into the backseat of our SUV, but has to be bribed with treats or lifted out of the car. The only thing we haven't tried is a ramp or stairs. This sweet guy is so easy going and politely seek pets from everyone he meets. He's met kids as young as 2 and does great. Just plops down and bows his head for pets. Just a warning, as long as someone's petting him, he's not going anywhere! When his forever family finds him, they are getting the BEST boy!"
