Hi! My name is Jin, and I am a very small boy with a VERY big heart. I’m about 3 months old, weigh around 6 pounds, and the shelter says I’m a terrier/cattle dog mix. I’m still figuring out exactly what that means, but I’m pretty sure it means I’m cute.
I had a bit of a rough start, I lost my mama. I’m learning that people can be very kind, and I’m really enjoying this whole “being loved” thing. In fact, I enjoy it so much that I would like to be in your lap approximately ALL THE TIME. Thank you.
I’m a total cuddle bug and would much rather be wherever my people are than off adventuring by myself. I’m not the bravest little explorer yet, so I tend to stay close to your feet. If you move, I may follow. If you sit down, I may climb into your lap. If you’re wondering where I am… please check your feet.
I love food (A LOT), toys, and playing in the grass outside. I also love soft places to nap and chew on my toys. I am basically a tiny professional at relaxing.
I’m doing pretty well with potty training — I’m about 80% there! And I sleep quietly through the whole night in my kennel. I’m also a good listener and come when I’m called. (Especially if there’s a possibility that food is involved. I’m not saying I’m food-motivated, but I’m also not
not
saying that. )
I’m friendly and playful with other dogs and would be happy living with canine friends, but I’m also perfectly happy being your one-and-only little guy.
Now, I do have one tiny disclaimer: I am currently teething. And unfortunately, human fingers are apparently extremely interesting chew toys. I’m working on learning that fingers are for petting, not nibbling. I’m just a baby, and with patience, redirection, and some appropriate things to chew, I’ll grow out of this stage. My foster family promises I’m worth the occasional “OUCH!”
My energy level is probably about an 5 out of 10… with a very generous amount of that energy followed by heavy napping.
Mostly, I just want to be with you. I want to follow you around, curl up beside you, play with my toys, explore the grass, and then climb into your lap when I’ve decided I’ve worked hard enough for the day.
If you’re looking for a sweet, cuddly little shadow with a playful side, a love of snacks, and a very promising future as a professional lap dog… maybe I’m your guy.
