Paulie

Age:5

Weight: 75

Location: Bucks County, PA

Nicknames: Big Paulie D

Good with other dogs?: Yes.
Paulie lived with and is currently being fostered with a 25lb female Boston Terrier. He gets along well with other dogs, but does get very excited meeting new dogs so slow and controlled introductions would be necessary. Unsure about how he is with male dogs. He would do well in a home with an active female dog around his size or a smaller. He doesn’t have awareness of how big/strong he is when he is excited, so a dog that can tolerate his spurts of energy is a must. The Boston Terrier would give him a warning snap sometimes, and he would correct himself, he has never snapped at her.

Good with cats? no

Good with children? 10+

Paulie is good at: staying in a crate, behaving in the house, going for car rides, making me feel safe, cuddling

Ideal home: someone at home most of the day, a fenced yard, other: Would be good in a home with or without another dog, he cares most about human attention.

Training Needs: leash training, other: managing his excitement

Health issues: None

Meet Paulie

Paulie is literally “man’s best friend”. He has not met a human he did not like. He thrives off of human attention and loves quality time cuddling on the couch or just being by your side. He is a couch potato but gets spurts of energy and is always up for a walk. Paulie lived with a small female Boston Terrier for 2 years and they would often share a food bowl, share toys and cuddle. He loves any treats you will give him and is very patient and takes treats gently. He is best left in a crate when alone. He is 100% house-trained and has never had an accident in the house. Paulie is a big love bug who is ready for his forever home!
