Spent far too long in the shelter and is more than ready for his next chapter.
Loves going for walks and hanging out with canine friends.
Good with other small dogs and reasonable with dog-savvy cats.
Housetrained but currently enjoying a little refresher course on leaving his mark where it belongs.
Loves women instantly and can be a little more cautious with men.
Treats and patience are the way to Remi's heart.
Does best with a slow approach, a steady touch, and people who let him come to them.
Not a fan of grabbing, overwhelming attention, squealing, or surprise kisses.
