Meet Colt! Colt is a loving, affectionate, and super cuddly boy who wants to be by your side at all times. He’s a true "velcro dog" who loves to follow his people around the house and shower them with attention. Colt's favourite treats include liver bites and Dentastix, though he’s happy to eat just about anything!
When it comes to meeting new people, Colt is friendly and kind, including with kids. He gets excited and pulls on walks, especially when he sees other dogs, but shows curiosity and interest rather than aggression when calmly observing them from a distance. We believe his reactivity may just be leash related rather than a true dislike of other dogs. Colt also pulls on the leash and gets very focused on small animals like squirrels and birds, so he needs a confident handler during walks. While Colt is completely house trained, he struggles with separation anxiety and doesn’t like being left alone. He can be destructive if left unattended for too long, so he’d do best with a family who is home often and can give him lots of attention and companionship.
Colt is a confident and happy dog who would thrive in a home where he gets plenty of love, exercise, and playtime. He’s great in a city environment and isn’t fazed by loud noises or traffic, making him a great fit for urban living. He’d be happiest as the only pet in a household that can give him lots of affection and doesn’t leave him alone for long periods.
