Little Boy

My story

Meet Little Boy – the Bubble-Chasing, Ice-Cube-Loving Chocolate Cutie! Little Boy is a 1-year-old chocolate terrier mix with soulful golden eyes, big floppy ears, and a personality that’s equal parts curious explorer and gentle companion. Weighing in at just 29 pounds, he’s perfectly sized for couch cuddles, outdoor fun, and everything in between. This playful boy is house trained and crate trained—he even cries to let you know when it’s potty time. He does great with tweens and teens and loves playing with dogs of all sizes (30-70 lbs). While he hasn’t shown interest in toys yet, he absolutely adores splashing in his water bowl, chasing bubbles, swatting at flying insects, and being first in line at the fridge for an ice cube treat. Seriously—ask him, “How about an ice cube?” and watch his eyes light up! Little Boy has a medium energy level: active enough to enjoy playtime and outdoor adventures, but also loves his daily naps. He’s learning leash manners and basic commands like sit and get in your box, and currently working on come here, shake, and lay down. Birds and squirrels are very exciting distractions on walks, so continued training will be helpful. While Little Boy is a bit aloof with people and not overly affectionate, he thrives in the company of other dogs and would do best in a home with a playful dog companion. He stays in his crate when left alone (4–8 hours), and although car rides make him a little nervous, he makes the cutest little noises during them. If you're looking for a quirky, sweet, and independent pup with a love of bubbles and cold treats, Little Boy might just be the perfect companion to add to your family!
