Adopted!! Yaaay Pip!
(Formerly Marlon)
Happy Tail- When we first adopted Marlon, he was so fearful of everything! He hardly came out of his kennel, and jumped at small noises. When he got too scared, he would just lay down and not move anymore, which he did quite a bit when taken outside or when someone tried to pet him. He did not want to be outside ever, and had some potty troubles. He did not chew, play, or accept treats.
Since then he has opened up and gained confidence in leaps and bounds, and we have a wonderful little man! Now Pip, he will get his harness on and run to the door, tail wagging a mile a minute to go for a walk on the Goose or run in the back yard. He loves treats, and will eat little nibbles we put on the floor for him. He has a favorite toy to play with, and loves his Kong. His hobbies include wrestling with blankets, and he is our house’s undisputed #1 snuggler!
He still has a ways to go on his confidence, but we are slowly working on it. We have joined a basic obedience class, and he is a very quick learner once he figures out what you want. He can be quite shy still, especially around children, but we’re making progress.
Pip has made our lives better for having arrived, and we can’t wait to learn and grow with him further. Jesse has been incredible, helping us out a lot when we first wanted to adopt and continuing now, as Pip needs a little bit of dental treatment from his old life and RainCoast is taking care of it. I always mention where we adopted him from, as everyone we meet loves how cute he is and they always ask.
