Farfalle is a generally quiet, reserved guy who likes to be around people, but who is still gaining confidence around handling and pats. He is very eager to learn new things, loves treats and wants to be nearby his people. His new owners will need to be prepared to introduce him to things nice and slowly, at his pace, and be aware he may change as he settles in and gains confidence. Farfalle's ideal home is one with a large, secure yard, with no other animals in it, where he can take things slowly getting used to both his new surroundings as well as other dogs. He would love to work on his socialisation in his new home! His ideal new family is one with no children in it, as he is currently worried about loud noises or sudden movements. He would love for his new home to be quiet and calm, in an area that is quiet. With the right expectations, Farfalle's journey will be rewarding, especially watching his true personality emerge!
