Falkor

Hey how are you?

I'm good but a bit nervous making this post .. my foster mum said I had to tell you about me, but that's a lot of attention on me when I’m nervous around new people and meeting new people! I'm hoping that you will fall in love with me and want to give me a furever home.......

Okay here goes I'm going to do my best!

I have come into care from a private surrender, I was being picked on by my fur brother who was a lot older then me and didnt want a young brother.

I am a just one year old Dachshund x Bichon Frisé and weigh 10.7kgs

The rescue took one look at me and said that I reminded them off Falkor from the Never Ending Story so that's how I got my name!!

My foster mum says I'm a unique little guy, who once comfortable with his humans loves to cuddle with them (and my foster fur sister)

Whilst i have just turned 1 year old, I'm still a huge puppy on some things and as such can still be known to take socks, shoes etc and hoard them (sometimes they just jump into my mouth - I can't help it)

I am learning how to sit and started walking on a lead but will need a committed new mum or dad to continue this training with me.

I currently sleep in a crate at night which sometimes I'm good with other nights I would happily sleep on your bed with you.

I would love a home where there is someone home more often then not to keep me company , works from home, retired, shift workers etc etc - I'm not a huge fan of being home alone for long periods but learning.

I love being in a home with another dog who will want to play with me, hang out with me and let me snuggle with them.

I like to spend my day either outside doing dog things or on your lap snuggling you a baby

I wouldn’t enjoy being home alone for 8+ hours a day without humans. My foster mum says I am not a fan of spending time by myself unless I choose too. I am a typical lap dog so that means I’m looking for a lap that is home more often than not, someone who can take the time to sit down and let me have a snooze on them or near them and definitely a home with another dog to play with and socialize with.

I would also love a home with kids where Ican play and get cuddles from

I have been with a cat before and was interested in being their friend but they showed me their claws and told me no - so I respected her boundaries!

I am toilet trained

I have also been exposed to chooks and was really happy just laying out side the pen fencing with my nose up against it watching them for ages - they are funny little creatures but I think they thought the same about me!

Now I probably sound like a bit much but I promise I am a gorgeous boy who just wants a family of his own with some love, time and attention.
