More about Ferris D6153

Meet Ferris: Loyal Protector, Snuggle Enthusiast, and Master of Living in the Moment Ferris has one life motto… “life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and snuggle, you could miss it.” And he fully expects you to stop… frequently… so he can lay directly on top of you. At home, Ferris is incredibly affectionate and happiest when he’s as close to his people as physically possible. Personal space? Never heard of it. He’s loyal, intuitive, and always tuned in to what’s happening around him. He also takes his role as household protector seriously and will let you know if something seems out of place. Consider him your very committed (and vocal) head of security. Ferris is also ready for adventure. He would make an excellent running or walking partner and loves getting out and experiencing the world with his person. He has a fun, playful side too. Ferris lives for his rubber toys and a good game of tug, and he’s wonderfully polite about it. He’s quick to grab a toy to play and has shown that he keeps his chewing focused on appropriate items. If you hand him a toy, you’ve got an instant best friend. When it comes to other animals, Ferris has shown positive signs. He has been around a cat and is curious and interested, but respectful… more “trying to make a friend” than anything else. With proper introductions and guidance, he has the potential to live successfully with feline companions. With other dogs, Ferris has shown he can do well, especially with proper introductions or in off-leash settings. On leash, though, he can get a bit overwhelmed and tends to be vocal when passing other dogs. With continued training and a confident handler, he has all the tools to keep improving. And because every good story has a plot twist… Ferris has shown he can be a bit of an athlete, including once clearing a four-foot fence in a foster home. Because of this, a secure setup is important. He has done very well on a tie-out or lead and previously lived successfully without a fenced yard. Ferris is looking for a home that will embrace his affectionate nature, appreciate his protective instincts, and maybe share a few adventures along the way. In return, he’ll bring loyalty, personality, and a whole lot of love… usually delivered at very close range.
