Description:
It's pretty impossible not to fall under Fidel's love spell! Fidel is about 3 months old and is the cutest little boy around. He is an adventurous guy eager for fun. He is looking for an active family who can make sure to keep his busy mind and body happy with lots of enrichment and adventures. Fidel weighs about 17lbs now and we estimate he will be at least 60lbs when fully grown. Fidel came to us with his sister and four brothers from a family in rural Yolo County. The family didn't plan on having the litter and rather than sending them to the shelter, we were able to place the kiddos in foster homes until they are adopted. These kiddos need individual homes with large dog-savvy families who are equipped to take on smart cookies. Fidel is the ringleader of the group . He is the first to explore new things and the first to give you his attention when the treats come out. He loves to learn and figure things out and would thrive with a family who wants a dog to teach lots of tricks. He has been doing great learning his basic manners and needs a family dedicated to continuing his training and socialization to help him be the best boy he can be. He would be a great candidate for group puppy classes. Fidel has done well meeting new dogs and would love a playful dog in his new home to help mentor him. He could also do well as an only dog with lots of opportunities to socialize with dog friends. Fidel has done well meeting cats and could do well living with dog-savvy cats with a slow introduction and proper supervision. Fidel could be a wonderful addition to a family with kids 12 years or older. Fidel has been doing well with his housetraining, but he still learning and needs a family who can be patient with him while he is learning and continue to be consistent with his training. He has done well being left alone in a pen and is doing well being crated overnight. He hasn't spent too much time completely alone and would do best with a family who has a schedule that will allow them to slowly acclimate him to being home alone. Fidel is such a handsome little man and he can't wait to meet his fur-ever family. If you think that might be you, submit an adoption application today! Fidel 's adoption fee is $350.
