Espresso’s Personality and Temperament

Espresso is a little shy at first, but this only lasts for about two minutes. Once he feels safe, he loves to be held and showered with affection. His favorite way to bond is through gentle petting and tasty treats, which quickly turn him into a loyal buddy.

He enjoys quiet environments and would thrive in a home without too much chaos. Espresso might also appreciate having a calm cat as a companion, but he prefers to be the only dog receiving attention. This makes him ideal for families or individuals who want a devoted canine friend without competition.

Living with Espresso

Espresso is house trained and paper trained, which means he knows where to go when nature calls. He is not a fan of going outside in the rain or cold weather, so a warm, cozy home is essential for his comfort.

Health and Care

Espresso is neutered and up to date on all his immunizations, including rabies. This means he is ready for adoption without any immediate medical concerns. His small size means he will require a diet suited for little dogs, and regular vet check-ups will keep him healthy and happy.

When adopting Espresso, you will receive a leash, collar, toys, and three days of food to help him settle into his new home. All his medical records will be provided, ensuring you have everything you need to care for him properly.
