Ping

My story

Say hello to Ping, the adorable and intelligent poodle mix with a heart full of love to give! This sweet boy is still learning to trust humans, but don't let his initial shyness fool you—once he bonds with you, he'll be your loyal companion for life. Ping is a happy, higher-energy pup who absolutely thrives in the company of other dogs. He currently lives with his canine best friend and two cats, and he flourishes with their companionship. He's playful, smart, and loves his toys—especially ones he can chew on! You'll often catch him doing the most adorable poodle move: standing on his hind legs and waving his paws in the air. Ping needs a home with at least one other confident, friendly dog who can be his buddy and help him build confidence around people. He'd do well with cats too, especially playful ones! While he's still working on basics like potty training and leash walking, his intelligence and treat motivation make him an excellent candidate for positive reinforcement training. Ping is timid around new people and prefers to take things slow and we believe he would do best with a female only home. Poor guy is terrified of men. He'll need a patient adopter who understands that trust takes time and is willing to let him blossom at his own pace. He can be a bit protective of his food bowl, so a home experienced with managing meal times would be best. Pings ideal home will be: -Homes with another dog (required!) -Patient, understanding owners -Female household -Active guardian who can provide mental and physical enrichment -Someone who appreciates a smart pup with tons of potential Ping is waiting for that special someone who will see past his shyness and recognize the wonderful, loving companion he's destined to become. Ping is: 12lbs 3 years old Neutered, utd on vaccines, microchipped, fecal tested. Dog, cat and expected to be kid friendly. Apply here: https://peaceloveandpawsrescue.com/adopt%2Ffoster-application
