Tom as now been with for one week. He was very shy in the beginning, especially with sudden or unknown movements. He still loved us very much, and if we sat down, he was right there crawling in our lap and getting reassuring pets. But if we moved too quickly or did something he wasn't expecting, he would put his ears back and jump away from the situation. Then quickly recover, and go and check it out. Now, one week later and he is settling in nicely and quickly losing any fears that he had. He's a great little cuddler and loves curling up in a warm cozy spot. Any cushy surface in the house has been layed on by Tom at one point. He really loves to cuddle up :)
We were told that Tom was potty trained when he came to us. Right away, we noticed something was wrong, as he was drinking a lot, barely peeing, only peeing in his kennel, and having strong odor to his urine. We quickly got him some antibiotics for a UTI and within 2 days, Tom was already feeling better and acting more like himself. Now we don't have potty accidents in the house (okay, okay, an occasional poop) and Tom goes potty outside! Though he is partial to one specific spot in the yard, in the leaf pile on the curb. Oh dogs...
Overall, Tom is a great little guy who is going to make someone VERY happy. If you are looking for a loyal companion, someone who really wants to spend the day with you, Tom is your guy! He may need a little longer of a "transition" time, as he is a more shy submissive dog, but he will return your patience with endless love! Apply for Tom today!
