A confident little social butterfly who knows when it's time for a nap! Paris is a beautiful tan girl with a lovely white stripe running down her nose and a confident, friendly personality that makes her a delight to spend time with. She's a little girl who loves being included in everything and is always keen to see what's happening around her. Whether it's playtime with her siblings, exploring her surroundings or getting involved with her people, Paris is happy to be right in the middle of it all. One of the cutest things about Paris is that she seems to know exactly when she's had enough excitement for the day. Once those little puppy eyes start getting sleepy, she'll happily trot off and tuck herself away somewhere cosy for a well-earned nap. She's a lovely balance of confident and affectionate, with plenty of playful energy and a sensible little side too. Paris loves her toys and is very food motivated, making her a fun little student for her future family. Her enthusiasm for rewards will be a great advantage when introducing positive training and teaching her all those important puppy skills. Her family can use tasty treats and interactive play to encourage recall, good manners, calm behaviour and all the little things that make everyday life with a dog enjoyable. She'll need continued socialisation and guidance as she grows, but her confident and friendly nature gives her a lovely starting point. Paris is going to be a wonderful companion for a family who enjoys including their dog in everyday life and watching her grow into a happy, well-rounded young dog.
If Paris isn't quite the right fit, these dogs are close matches.
