Adopt a Miniature Pinscher / Mixed (short coat)
Tyke the Dog needs a home
Meet Tyke! He's a very dapper older gentleman who is an absolute delight! Tyke is likely a MinPin mix who is estimated to be between 12 and 15 years old, but don't let that fool you! This guy's in excellent health and has the perfect amount of playful energy. In the morning, he waits til you awake to greet you, but then is just so happy to start the day with you that you can't help but laugh. He weighs approximately 15 lbs. He likes his foster dog brothers just fine, and appreciates their leadership in the home. There have been no food or resource guarding issues and they all dine communally. He does not, however, care to live peacefully with his foster cat, as his chasing instincts are strong. He's been a part of a busy foster home with people of all ages coming and going, and he does great with it all, but he seems to prefer quiet cuddling with his special person. He's made exceptional progress walking politely on leash (although he still tends to pull if he sees a squirrel or a kitty) and has been completely nonreactive to meeting other dogs on walks. Once he learned the house routine, he's had no potty accidents and is able to be left out while we're gone. We think he may becoming hard of hearing, but he's adjusting just fine and watches his person for cues in all situations. He's a love bug who would make an excellent companion for someone looking for a cuddler!
