ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:
What impact does the domino effect have on you? Exercise caution, as you might find yourself entranced just as I was. From the very first moment I encountered Domino, I was utterly captivated by him. We spent a delightful afternoon together, lounging on the sofa while I attended to my work. Domino made numerous attempts to assist me; he would perch on my lap and gaze at the computer screen. On occasion, he even attempted to type for me. Although his contributions may not have aligned with my needs, his efforts were nonetheless appreciated. While we were on the sofa, if I failed to give him sufficient attention, he would communicate his desire for interaction by tapping my arm with his paw. The moment I wrapped my arm around him or began to pet him, he would settle down contentedly.
You may wonder where his happy place is. He adores lying beside you or nuzzling his head into your armpit. His affectionate nature is evident, as he bestows numerous kisses upon those he loves. Domino has a fondness for treats and enjoys being in the company of people. He interacts well with dogs, provided they respect his cues when he is ready to conclude playtime. He relishes cuddles, play sessions, and leisurely walks in tranquil environments. Although he may initially feel anxious when meeting new individuals, he quickly warms up and will express his affection through hugs and kisses. Indeed, he hugs by placing his paws on you and resting his head against your chest, which is undeniably endearing. Once he gets to know you, he wants to spend all his time by your side and would prefer a home with constant human companionship.
So, I pose the question once more: What effect does the domino effect have on you? I invite you to visit the adoption center to meet him and discover for yourself what an extraordinary and lovable companion he truly is.
Domino was neutered before coming to Homeward Trails.
