Story
Albert is a playful, energetic, and fiercely loyal companion, ready to be his favorite person’s shadow in life. He is a very good listener who responds to “sit”, “spin”, and even “kennel up”. Albert has also grown accustomed to his at-home grooming sessions. He will happily stand in the bath while you shampoo him, or sit in front of you as you brush his luscious locks. His favorite hobby is playing and snuggling with his foster chihuahua brother. He is also living with two foster cat siblings, respecting their boundaries as rulers of the household. While he may be nervous and shy at first, he warms up very quickly to those who show him lots of love! His main motivations in life are words of affirmation and chest rubs, but he can also be bribed with food/treats. He is very much used to hunkering down in his kennel as he has been recovering from surgery to repair his broken femur. This also means he is always inclined to be your lap buddy in times of relaxation. Albert is well on his way to recovery after his surgery, training and using his renewed leg like nobody’s business! Soon, he’ll be ready to take on the world one leap at a time. When you’re ready for an adaptable, sweet, and energetic cuddle buddy, Albert will be your most loyal companion.Pets are complex beings and prior to adoption, interested adopters will be counseled by a staff member to discuss the specific needs for each animal.
