A LITTLE MORE ABOUT CUERVO
Cuervo is a friendly, affectionate boy who loves being part of the family.
He has grown up around young children and is accustomed to the activity and excitement of a busy household. His owners describe him as beautifully natured and very tolerant of their children.
He is playful, energetic and enjoys interacting with the other dog in his home. Like many enthusiastic dogs, he can become quite excited during playtime!
Cuervo also has a softer side. His owners describe him as more of a whiner than a barker, although he may join in when another dog starts barking.
He is a companion who appreciates plenty of love and attention and enjoys spending time close to his people.
LIFE WITH CUERVO
Cuervo has become accustomed to being an indoor dog and enjoys the comforts of family living.
He is used to sleeping on blankets and even sharing his owners’ bed!
He has also lived peacefully with the family’s cats, although his owners mention that he can become interested in monkeys and other animals outside.
When encountering unfamiliar dogs, Cuervo can initially be cautious. His owners say he is not aggressive and generally becomes more comfortable once he has had time to adjust.
Walks can be exciting, particularly when another dog is present, so calm handling and consistent guidance would be beneficial.
Most importantly, Cuervo is a loving boy who enjoys companionship and being included in everyday family activities.
CUERVO’S IDEAL HOME
Cuervo would thrive with a caring family who can offer him a secure, stable home and plenty of companionship.
His ideal home would provide:
- A secure, properly fenced garden where he can safely explore and play.
- A loving family who welcomes him indoors as part of everyday life.
- Regular walks, exercise and mental stimulation.
- Plenty of attention, affection and opportunities to spend time with his people.
- Patient introductions to unfamiliar dogs.
- Calm, consistent guidance when he becomes excited on walks.
Cuervo has experience living with young children and cats, which is encouraging for a family environment. However, introductions to new children and pets should always be carefully supervised.
He would particularly suit a household that enjoys an affectionate, playful dog and understands that he needs both exercise and quality time with his family.
