I try to make it to pet stores and shelters as often as I can to play with the puppies because I feel bad about the lack of human interaction they get. I am usually very good about not getting personally attached because I can’t afford to save them all. That changed last week when I held and played with the most adorable black and white fluff ball ever! There was just something about this puppy that told my heart he was mine. It took a little convincing with my husband but I got to bring him home the next day. He is the best of both worlds when it comes to puppies. He is very willing to play when on the ground but loves to snuggle when you hold him. He has only been with us one week and is housebroken, will sit, takes treats “easy” and comes when called by his name. We named him Po, like Kung Fu Panda. He does have some separation anxiety but he fits with our family perfectly. Even our Pomeranian, Polomalu, has taken to him. I still can’t get over how soft his coat is and how smart he is. I feel very lucky to have found the perfect pup for me.
