Howdy y’all! Durango here, by way of Texas. Let me tell you a little about myself. I’m cuddly and adorable, but I need to get to know you and trust you first. I will likely attach myself to one member of the family more than others and I’m still learning that men aren’t so bad. Strangers make me nervous, and I will show fear aggression if someone I don’t know tries to pick me up.
I prefer sleeping with my humans (especially under the covers!) rather than in a crate. I accept going in my crate without much fuss but can get a little vocal at times. Outside my crate I’m not a particularly ‘yappy guy’ but bark when appropriate, like when someone’s at the door. I love belly rubs and will flop into your arms to grab a nap. I enjoy playing with my toys so long as you play with me. I’m the type of dog that can be as playful or lazy as you want-I play hard, I sleep hard. I get along with one cat in my foster home, but the other doesn’t like the way I play. I haven’t been tested with dogs but may do fine with unimposing, comparably sized female dogs. I enjoy going for walks but still pull a bit. I’ve come a long way with my potty habits. I haven’t yet figured out how to alert you when I need to go out but will use a pee pad. You will probably notice from my photos I have a sizeable scar on the top of my head and forehead. My vet feels the most likely cause is as a result of a past trauma. I promise that with a few days of patience and compassion, I will absolutely melt your heart!
