This is Beetle. He’s a miniature poodle born 8/26/16. He is an absolute cuddle bug and sweetheart. He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body. He is kennel trained and quiet. He only barks if he feels like he’s been abandoned, such as, if I go outside and he’s in the house alone. He is good with cats, other dogs and lizards. Given his personality, I can only imagine he is great with kids too. 

He’s currently working on potty training but wears a belly band without issue. He mostly poops outside but peeing outside vs. inside is about 50/50. He loves frolicking outside on a leash but is still earning etiquette and getting used to the feeling of the pulling sensation. He’s not yet been on a car ride but I hope to test that out soon. 

Beetle is a relatively low energy dog who is content to sleep on the couch next to you for hours. He also likes to rest either on you or while touching you. He gives affectionate little kisses and will follow you around the house. If he’s in a kennel or playpen while we are gone, he stays quiet (we have a nannycam.) It’s only when he’s left alone loose in the house that he will get anxious. Overall, he’s a super sweet dog with no destructive tendencies. He’s a good eater and will wear little sweaters to keep him warm. He doesn’t like treats or toys very much but on rare occasions will show interest in them. He doesn’t mind being carried and can go upstairs but isn’t comfortable going down yet. I think this will change shortly.
