First stop was the pet store, where he got to pick out a toy all for himself. Then he came back to our place to meet Bishoo. Since she’s much bigger than him, Malo was a little cautious at first, but once he figured out she was friendly, they settled right in and had a great time together.

He also met our neighbor dog Doug and a bunch of neighbors too. Malo can be a bit shy with new people, but once he warms up, he’s all about the pets and attention. It didn’t take long before he was soaking up the love from everyone.

One of the best parts of the day was his little “photo shoot.” Bridget showed him how to pose like a pro, and we hid treats for him to find between snaps. He looked so handsome and had fun at the same time.

Afterward, he zoomed around the yard, gobbled up more treats, and then curled up for some snuggles. He even fell asleep on my lap, which was pretty perfect.

Malo’s such a sweet little guy—shy at first, but once he feels safe, he’s all cuddles and love. Whoever ends up with him is going to be very lucky.
