Timmy

If you’re looking for a gentleman with a playful side, Timmy might just be your man! This lovely boy is calm, friendly and so wonderfully polite that we’re starting to wonder if it’s his middle name. He was very hopeful that his assessment would include a car ride, repeatedly trying to hop into the open van door. We admire the optimism, Timmy!

During his assessment, Timmy showed off his lovely manners, even when there were little chickens wandering around. He was curious about his feathered friends but remained perfectly polite, proving that he knows how to keep his cool even when there’s something interesting happening nearby. He’s also very responsive to his people and has a gentle, delicate heart that makes him all the more endearing.

Timmy does have a playful side, too! He kept trying to initiate play with our assessor’s dogs, showing that underneath those impeccable manners is a boy who would love a bit of fun with his friends. He’d be happy sharing his home with another friendly dog or equally content being your one and only, soaking up all the love for himself. Timmy is suitable for a variety of homes, so if you’re ready to welcome a sweet, gentle gentleman into your life, it might just be Timmy time!
