Story
Matchbox, a 5-month old, 26-pound (as of 1/1) Shar Pei/ Lab mix, thinks of himself as a lap dog! Yep, you heard that right! If he could be on top of you all the time, he would be! This handsome hunk is full of love, cuddles, fun, and good times!
Curious, brave, and clever, Matchbox has quickly adapted to the streets of NYC. He likes to sniff, chase squirrels and pigeons, and say hello to people and pooches along the way. Matchbox is currently perfecting his leash walking skills and is almost fully housebroken. He knows how to use wee wee pads and is comfortable relaxing in his crate gnawing on a bone. This well-adjusted fella would make an ideal travel companion, having calmly ridden on both the subway, as well as a passenger vehicle.
Matchbox loves being outdoors, going for walks, playing with other dogs, and snuggling at home with his humans. He is lovely around folks of any age, from little children to the elderly, and is warm and welcoming with all dogs, even the somewhat crankier types. Responsive to treats and highly intelligent, Matchbox has learned sit and come in no time flat, and is capable of acing many more commands. Eager to please and extremely attentive, if you have the time to train Matchbox, he has the desire to learn.
A huge snuggler, on a scale of 1 to 10, Matchbox is an 11 when it comes to affection. He thrives on human closeness and no amount of petting, scratching, massaging and rubbing is too much for this guy. This goofball does not look for drama and just wants everyone to love and adore him…which is soooooo easy to do.
If you’re looking for a young, gorgeous, upbeat, sweet-as-sugar puppy to add sparkle and shine to your life, Matchbox could be…well, the perfect match!
