blanket

Potatoes, anyone?? Meet Blanket (also affectionately called Spud or Little Man). An 8-yo, 10.2-lb Chi mix with the cutest little bunny bottom who is on his way to an ideal weight of 7-8lbs. Sadly, he was surrendered after his elderly owner was unable to care for him. Blanket is doing well in his foster home and gets along with a same size and larger dog but doesn’t require a companion dog. He does not pay any attention to a cat. He will need time to adapt to a new environment when he finds his new forever home. He approaches for pets, cuddles and joining his person on the couch and will follow foster mom from room to room. He is making progress with his walking on leash, and will need someone to continue that with him. He loves the outdoors, sun bathing and hanging out with the other pups and exploring sights and smells. Blanket is a good eater (hence weight loss agenda), even likes veggies and takes treats gently. He’s house trained, rides nicely in a car safely tethered, crated, sleeps quietly all night in his crate when given his nightly treat. This little boy can be somewhat nervous to be picked up, but allows with gentle assurances and is easy to be bathed. He recently had a dental. He would do best in a quiet home and, if the home has kids, they be older and respectful. This friendly boy will steal your heart with his soulful eyes, sweet kisses and gentle manner. Although showing no interest in toys at first, Blanket now carries a stuffed toy around (for comfort?) while waiting for meals or to go outside. Part of his personality is expressed with his tongue out, evidenced in many pictures.
