PEPE

 

Male | 1.5 years old | 30 pounds | Medium energy | From Mexico | Fostered in Toronto | Hasn’t met kids or cats | Playful with dogs | Affectionate

PEPE. The kind of scruff who enjoys the simple things in life. What are those simple things he’s oh so fond of, you ask? Food, sunshine, and cuddles. The ultimate trifecta. Affection is the way to his heart, and while he might be shy around new people, he’s always quick to ask for pats from them.

So. For PEPE, being close to his humans is ideal. It’s spending quality time with him that has helped strengthen his bond with his foster family. We love being able to share that through patience and consistent training, PEPE has made so much progress since day one in their care.

Friendly with dogs and humans alike, PEPE particularly enjoys spending time with other high-energy scruff. If they can match his energy and playfulness, then just like that, they’ll be BFFs. Squirrels might not be so fond of him, as he tends to want to chase after them in the park. PEPE has adapted well to living in a busy city environment, though he would still likely do best in a calmer environment with less honking and slamming of doors on the regular. 

We’re pleased to share that while challenging at first, this scruff’s crate training and leash-walking skills have improved. He settles quickly when left alone and responds to leash pressure. Oh, and? He knows to sit at crosswalks and check in with his people. Implementing boundaries with PEPE is straightforward. PEPE is food-motivated and keen to follow his human’s lead and provided you position yourself as the leader, he’ll continue to progress with training!
