Description
Meet Cinco: Professional Snuggler, Adventure Dog & Licensed Fly Assassin!Cinco is a shy guy at first, but once you’ve passed his background check, prepare yourself! This timid little dude turns into a hilarious, affectionate, roughhousing, zoomie-powered cuddle bug.Cinco LOVES his people. He sleeps in bed, specializes in morning cuddles and has ridiculously silky-soft fur. He’s friendly and submissive with other dogs and very pack-oriented. His dream home would include a confident, playful dog sibling who enjoys wrestling, chasing and general canine nonsense as much as he does.Athletically, Cinco is basically a tiny superhero. He gets absolutely ridiculous zoomies where he tucks his butt and tail and becomes a furry missile. He’d make an awesome running or hiking buddy and needs plenty of daily exercise to keep his brilliant puppy ideas to a minimum.He recently tried paddleboarding and crushed it. Calmly rode around like a seasoned professional. Swimming? Still under review. Waves? Suspicious. Accidentally falls off the paddleboard? Turns out he CAN swim. Cinco is 99.9% potty trained, uses the dog door, knows “sit,” walks nicely without pulling and is kennel trained — although he would like it officially documented that entering the kennel requires appropriate treat-based compensation. His recall and basic manners are still developing, and occasionally he gives enthusiastic full-body “hugs.”He also has some puppy tendencies. If you leave a shoe, cord, blanket or other interesting object within reach, Cinco may conduct an unauthorized quality-control inspection. Luckily, he redirects well to toys, bones and his beloved beef cheek rolls. And if your home has flies? Not anymore. Cinco takes pest control VERY seriously.Cinco needs a patient, active family who will give him a little time to feel safe with new people. Once he decides you’re his person, you get the full Cinco experience: cuddles, adventures, wrestling, hilarious zoomies, unconditional love and complimentary fly removal.
