About Biscuit

Biscuit is a small terrier mix with a gentle nature and an obvious love for cuddling. He’s happiest when curled up on a lap for hours, happy to give and receive affection. Potty training is coming along well—he has just a few accidents per week if left alone too long. Biscuit walks nicely on a leash, but crating isn’t for him—he’ll bark the entire time, so he’d do best in a home where that isn’t needed. Biscuit gets along with other dogs and cats, though he sometimes can’t resist a playful chase with the cats. He’s been around people of all ages, from teenagers to seniors, and is always friendly and easygoing. While he hasn’t met children yet, he gives every sign of being a good fit given the proper introduction. Biscuit is also a laid-back traveler and rides well in the car. What are you waiting for?
