About Patty

Hi there, I'm Patty! I'm a sweet, curious, and energetic puppy who would love someone to take me for long walks, cuddle with me, and show me around. I can be shy and timid at first, but that's just because I don't know what's expected of me in new situations. I warm up quickly, though! My foster mom loves my heart-shaped nose and my short little tail. I'm missing part of my tail, but TRUST me, I'm not missing any personality! I'm from Texas and it's pretty chilly up here, so I love to snuggle up in a blanket next to my people. I sleep in my kennel at night and I'm very quiet.

I'm working on potty training and doing very well with frequent potty breaks. I'll need someone to continue to teach me about being polite and how to walk on a leash. I love treats, though, and I really want to do the right thing – can you teach me? I'm a puppy, so I love to play with toys, especially bones and things I can chew on! My foster mom throws balls for me, but I make her go get them. My foster mom tells me it's not polite to jump, but I'm still learning. I've been around people of all ages, even ones smaller than me, and I love everyone! I am a puppy, so I like to jump up to say hi and let you know I'm here and would love a pet. I've been around a cat and I'm a little scared of him, but he likes me, so I think we'll be friends. I've met some big dogs since I've been here, and I learn from them and take their lead. I know when they want to stop playing, and I go find one of my toys instead. I like to run and chase them around in the yard, and they like to play with me too. They chase the ball that my foster mom throws, but I don't see the point, so I just wait until they get back. I would love to meet someone who can see past my timidness and see that I am an amazing pup! They would continue to teach me manners, take me on walks, and cuddle with me. In return, I will give kisses, love, and endless laughs. Pinky promise!
