I am a Puppy, I like to play. I will run around, and chase
imaginary monsters, and chase your feet and your toes and 'attack' you, and
chase fuzz balls, other pets, and small kids. It is play; it's what I do.
Do not be mad at me or expect me to be sedate, mellow and sleep all
day. If my high energy level is too much for you, maybe you could
consider an older rescue from a shelter or Rescue group. My play is
beneficial, use your wisdom to guide me in my play with appropriate
toys, and activities like chasing a rolling ball, or gentle tug games, or
plenty of chew toys for me. If I nip you too hard, talk to me in "dog talk,"
by giving a loud YELP, I will usually get the message, as this is how dogs
communicate with one another. If I get too rough, simply ignore me
for a few moments, or put me in my crate with an appropriate chew toy.

I am a Puppy, and I am a creature with feelings and drives much like
your own, but yet also very different. Although I am NOT a human in a
dog suit, neither am I an unfeeling robot who can instantly obey your
every whim. I truly DO want to please you, and be a part of your
family, and your life. You got me (I hope) because you want a loving
partner and companion, so do not relegate me to the backyard when I
get bigger. Do not judge me harshly but instead mold me with
gentleness and guidelines and training into the kind of family member
you want me to be.
