ABOUT :

Twizzler was rescued from an overcrowded shelter in Los Angeles where he was facing euthanasia at the young age of 2 years old due to overpopulation. Luckily he made it out just in time, and has settled into his new life in Canada!

In the home, Twizzler is a laid back boy. He loves lounging in his bed, and sitting in the sunlight and relaxing. He can be shy at first, but once he knows you he is cuddly and loving, and follows his people around the house. He knows to ask for cuddles, or to go outside when he needs to. He can stay home alone for a few hours without trouble, he will snooze in his crate and wait for you to come home - he would prefer it if you stayed home with him, though! Twizzler is smart too, he has already learned sit, stay, and to give his paw. He would be happy to learn more tricks, if his new family wants to teach him.

Currently Twizzler is living with another dog in his foster home. They get along great, and Twizzler has previously cohabitated with another dog as well without issue. On leash, when he is being walked with another dog, he can get frustrated and react to other dogs he sees. He doesn’t appreciate when they approach him - he wants his time to walk on his own, thanks! This is something his future family will need to continue working on.

Twizzlers ideal home would not be in a busy area. A surburban home would be best suited for him, as he prefers a calmer environment. For this same reason, he would be best suited to a home without young children.

WORDS FROM HIS FOSTER:

Twizzler is SUCH A GOOD BOY. He is the gentlest and sweetest of souls and has captured my heart.

He loves his walks where he sniffs the ground and gathers information. All of his behaviors are so gentle and sweet. He enjoys being near his human while sleeping in his beds and/or sunbathing. He is also potty trained and knows commands as sit, stay, paw. I have been very lucky to help him find a forever home. I wish him so much happiness.
