Costa / Pierogi

Pierogi is a pint-sized guy with a ton of heart and some wonderfully unique ears! He's currently on the shy side and takes a little time to warm up to the big wide world, but he is doing beautifully in his foster home every single day. Once he knows he's safe, his gentle, sweet nature shines right through. If you have a quiet home and a little patience to watch this small pup blossom into your most loyal companion, Pierogi is ready to fill your life with love!

Ideal Home

Pierogi is doing well with cats and other dogs, and would actually prefer a doggy friend in his future home as he gains confidence from them. He is more on the submissive side with other dogs and listens to their cues well. He is still a puppy who loves to play and enjoys playing with his foster siblings. Due to having a rough start to life, Pierogi gets scared by unpredictable and quick movements. He gets really scared when he's cornered and starts shaking, so he would do best in a home with older children who are less likely to startle him.

Ongoing Health

Pierogi is healthy and happy!

Training & Support

Pierogi is doing well with potty training and crate training. He already sees the crate as his safe space and goes inside when he's scared. Right now, his training mostly consists of building his confidence and rewarding him whenever he shows an act of bravery. He gets treats simply for being brave enough to hop on his foster mom's lap or walk over the doorway when called. Pierogi gets a little better on the leash every day! He was really scared of the leash early on but now seems to enjoy his walks! He loves to play with doggy friends and enjoys all toys. He picks up all the sticks in the yard and enjoys chasing his foster siblings when they chase balls in the yard.
