About Sheldon

R251 000 066 "As you can see from my profile picture, I am a very good-looking boy, I'm just a baby at 14 months old so am still learning things, but my foster Mum says I am smart and catch on quickly. I love my food, dry food, and meatballs, with two small meals per day. I love treats too so if you need to if you need to teach me anything = Show me the treats." "I am amazing on lead and will trot next to my foster sister. I also enjoy a good run around the oval. I love my enclosed backyard and chase little lizards which keeps me occupied for hours (I don't catch any) I'm inquisitive, so make sure there's nowhere for me to escape!" "My perfect home will be with an ACTIVE FEMALE who will walk me at least once a day because I only have short legs. My foster Mum says I have a beautiful temperament and I'm always calm and relaxed when I am with her. I do however get a little nervous AROUND MEN and BOYS SCARE ME so I bark at them and try to chase them away so I will do best in an ALL-FEMALE HOME. (This doesn't mean any grandkids-supervised visits I'll be fine. I am not snappy, just scared.)" "Whilst I enjoy laying outside in the sun, I would not like to sleep outside. I am a very clean little boy and love sleeping snuggled up on my foster Mums bed. She puts the fleece blanket over me, and I stay there all night." "CAR TRIPS – I love these too. My foster Mum bought me a booster seat and its great because I can look out the window. I am a fantastic camper too." "My foster Mum has shown me many new things and I've taken it all in my stride because I trust her, and she makes me feel safe. Once I learn to trust my new (Forever) Mum, I'll be the same. I would prefer no stairs; I climb the cat tree and the dining room table!" Another dog in my home will be best for me. A family who doesn't go out to work for hours on end and leave me and my doggie friend all alone for a long time." # Please Do Not apply for Sheldon if your family is not completely suitable. * Please remember to include as much information as possible when applying to adopt Sheldon.
