A note from Pumba’s Slumber Pawty Weekend!!
Pumba is a fantastic house guest. Age is certainly just a number with this sweet boy. He is so lively and happy, but also knows when it’s time to relax and chill. He loves to lay with you or even lay in a bed or open crate! He never had an accident in my house and was great at going outside when he needed!! I have other dogs and he got along with them seamlessly! He chose to sleep in his crate at night and loved to be wrapped up in a fuzzy blanket. He barks minimally and is a perfect size companion. He ate soft food with me and had a very healthy appetite! The boy loves to eat. I’m pretty sure he even knows “sit”. He loved exploring the backyard and following me or my mom around. He is a sweetheart with so much love to give. We know he will make a family extremely happy with his perfect demeanor and a face that’ll steal your heart. Senior dog lovers… Pumba is a GEM!!!
