Help! Get me out of here! Did you look at the pictures? Did you see that big black thing next to me? These people have a whole mess of those giants. Don’t get me wrong, I am a feisty little thing. I can hold my own but every time I move, I am at risk of being trampled. I am definitely not afraid of these dogs. In fact, my foster mom thinks I should probably be more afraid than I am. I can get a little sassy and I don’t back down when they get mad at me. As you can also see from my picture, I am adorable. I’m a Coton de Tulear, born 6/2/23. I will make you smile just looking at me. As I said earlier, I am feisty. There are times when I like to snuggle but I am not just a lap dog. I like to run and play. I have quite a bit of energy. I am new to Minnesota. When I got here, I was so little and afraid, but I am making progress every day. Because I was so little and afraid (and it rained non-stop for 3 days) my foster mom decided to start my potty-training using pee pads. I excelled at pee pads very quickly. I am smart.  We are now working on going potty outside. Besides being smart, I am loyal. I love my foster mom SOOO much. I want to be with her all the time. She never has to worry about me running away. I am always right there with her. She is working very hard to introduce me to lots of other people, both young and old, hoping I can broaden my attachments. I still have very sharp puppy teeth and I love to chew on people so really little children might need to be careful. My foster mom has been working hard to redirect me to chew toys but I am resistant to that idea.  I have also been working on crate training. I will actually sleep in a crate all night as long as I am in the bedroom with my foster mom. She is working on moving me farther away from her bed each night. It is going slow because I get really upset when I get too far away from her. I just had surgery, so she is trying to keep me calm right now. The benefit to me being close to her is I wake her up if I need to go potty.  Some nights I don’t need to get up at all and some nights I need to go potty once in the middle of the night. So far, I have not really been left alone. As I said, I get really upset if I am left alone. I mean really upset! So currently, my foster mom is leaving me for just a few minutes at a time. However, I know once I heal from my surgery, she will be increasing the time. I am going to hate that! So, I am looking for a forever home where I don’t need to be left alone a whole lot. I am pretty sure you will fall in love with me as soon as you meet me. I am irresistible!
