Pier’s terrier traits shine through in his curiosity and adaptability, while his individual personality adds an extra dose of sweetness. Pier’s Story & Personality: Pier is a small, lovable pup with a heart full of joy and a tail that never stops wagging. Despite a rough start in life, he has remained incredibly affectionate, resilient, and happy-go-lucky. He lights up the room the moment you walk in and melts into your arms when you pick him up – truly the definition of a cuddle bug. He’s friendly with everyone he meets, including children, and has a naturally gentle, easygoing personality. Pier enjoys other dogs and plays well, though his interest in barking at cats outside suggests he’d do best in a home without cats or with a careful introduction. He’s leash trained, housebroken, crate trained, and fine being left alone without a crate. While he’s still working on building strength in his muscles and joints due to early neglect, he’s doing great on daily walks and loves every adventure life offers. Mealtime is one of his favorite moments of the day – he’s a big eater with an even bigger heart. Pier’s Ideal Home: A loving family or individual who will give him plenty of affection A home with or without other friendly dogs A yard would be great, but not required Cat-free home or one willing to work on careful introductions Someone committed to helping him continue building strength and confidence Ready to Give Pier the Love He Deserves? Pier is sweet, snuggly, and ready to bring endless joy to his forever family. He’s the perfect mix of playful and calm, making him easy to love and even easier to cherish. Whoever gets to love this little guy forever is truly in for something special. Comprehensive details are provided in the dog's description.
