Wahoo has a big personality in a small package. He expresses his love with kisses and cuddles, once confident with his people; and plays fetch very well! Wahoo is looking for someone who is home more often than not, as he doesn’t cope on his own. He is best behaved when he has plenty of toys to stimulate him, he will play fetch with a ball by himself. Because of his size (only 4kg) another dog of similar size would be a great match for him; and he would benefit from the company, as he previously lived in a multiple dog household, he gets along with both male and female dogs. He also gets frightened by sudden movements and loud noises; so needs a child free home. He can get defensive when frightened so it’s important he is not pushed and allowed time to come to you at his pace. Wahoo won’t be the sort of dog that runs up to you for pats and cuddles, he may be avoidant at his meet and greet so we do believe another dog will help him come out of his shell further. Wahoo will toilet trained however will need monitoring until he knows where to go. He will wait until morning to toilet, as long as he is made comfortable before bedtime (this cannot be rushed). Wahoo is happiest sitting with his people on the couch, or snuggled under the blankets in bed with you. He is a congenial and bold little fellow, exceptionally cute and generous with his affections to everyone in his household. However he may need a little more time with men before allowing them to pay him. Wahoo needs lots of love, patience and encouragement. But with the right person or couple, he will be an amazing affectionate dog.
