18-04-26 Calico is a very sweet boy who has come into our care from a breeder in search of a new start. He is a little shy at the moment, but he is gentle and easy to handle, and is already allowing people to approach him without running away, which is a lovely sign of growing confidence. Calico gets on wonderfully with his kennel friends and clearly takes comfort from their company, so he will need a kind and confident resident dog in his new home to help guide him and give him the reassurance he needs as he settles in and finds his paws. As Calico has never lived in a home before, he will need patient adopters who can teach him all about house training, lead walking, and the everyday basics of home life. A calm routine and gentle encouragement will help him continue to build confidence. Calico would like a calm and quiet home so that he can relax and settle into his new surroundings without too much noise or activity. A quiet environment will allow him to adjust at his own pace. Calico is a gentle and sensitive boy who is already showing lovely progress. With time, patience, and kindness, he will grow into a loyal and affectionate companion. This dog can be homed with a resident dog.
