ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:

Corduroy is a happy, snuggly boy and such a lover. He wants to sleep right next to you with his sweet little head on your leg. He loves everyone he meets and isn't shy about letting you know.

He plays well with big and small dogs. He loves to chase whatever you throw for him and sometimes he even brings it back. He's doing very well with leash training.

He sleeps all night (6-8hrs). I've set him up in the bathroom with an open crate for a soft place to sleep. He's doing very well with potty training too, (about 90% of the time.)

And boy does he love food! A snuffle mat is highly recommended to slow down his feeding frenzy.
