About Pickles

Pickles is the definition of a loyal, affectionate best friend. He's fully housebroken, great in the car, and happiest when he's right next to his people soaking up attention. If you are looking for a dog that will love you hard and never leave your side, this is your guy. He's not a fan of crates, but honestly does not need one. He prefers to be out with his people where he feels comfortable and included. He is non destructive and behaved, too. Pickles has low to medium energy depending on the day. He enjoys his walks but will need someone who can handle a little leash pulling, a harness keeps him manageable. He does have a history of trying to make a run for it, so a securely fenced yard is a must. Pickles can live with another dog, but he tends to do best with larger, more easygoing dogs. He can get a little overexcited, so a confident, tolerant dog that wont be bothered with proper introductions will set him up for success. Pickles is fostered with children, and adores kids, but because he gets excited and can jump, we recommend a home with older kids (8 to 9+). Pickles is a huge cuddle bug and extremely affectionate. He just wants to be loved and included in your life.
