About Shakespeare

Oh, let me tell you about the delightful Shakespeare! 🎭 This wonderful 5-year-old Morkie, tipping the scales at a lively 11 pounds, is here to steal hearts with his **magical** little personality. With a charming, expressive face and a grin that lights up the room (seriously, it’s like sunshine on a rainy day!), he is a gentle spirit who’s slowly discovering just how wonderful the world can be. 🌍❤️ Imagine starting your day with Shakespeare at 6:30 a.m. He hops out of his cozy crate, ready for a quick potty break followed by a sprinkle of playtime that, I must say, is simply filled with belly rubs and a game of catch that lasts about ten glorious minutes. Breakfast follows soon after, and then it’s time for his true favorite pastime: lounging like the royalty he believes he is! 👑✨ His morning walks are a delightful 15-30 minutes filled with sniffing all the good smells, and while he’s still learning his leash manners, what he lacks in technique, he makes up for in charm. When Shakespeare arrived at his foster home, oh my heart, it was a tough transition for him. 😢 But through love and patience, this little nugget has blossomed. Early on, he did communicate his need for personal space with a little growl when it came to being picked up or having certain parts of his body touched. But patience — oh, you would not believe the power of patience — combined with the treats he adores! 🎉 With diligent training, he’s learned that humans mean happiness, not fear. His triumphs include enjoying belly rubs, side pets, and even being scooped up into loving arms — can you imagine the joy? Now, let’s be honest: Shakespeare might not be the *most* high-energy boy, but don't underestimate this couch potato! 🥔 He’ll cherish short walks and games of catch, all while keeping his barking to an absolute minimum—mostly reserved for the cheeky squirrels that dare to cross his path. 🐿️ And guess what? He warms up to visitors with wagging joy, ready to welcome all the affection they wish to shower upon him. While he’s mostly housetrained, he relies on a routine to let you know when it’s potty time. And just so you know, rainy weather isn’t exactly his favorite — he prefers to stay dry, so keep that in mind! ☔ Shakespeare would thrive best with a loving family that understands the importance of building trust over time. He would absolutely adore a home with older kiddos who can respect his boundaries and love him just as he is. What makes Shakespeare extra special is his resilience. 🌈 After all he’s been through, he’s ready to try with all his heart. Beneath his cautious exterior lies a sweet, affectionate companion who longs for safety and love. He embodies the belief that, with patience and kindness, all good things can happen in life. 🥰 So if you’re ready to let this darling little heart into your home, make sure to **apply through the Buddy App**—your journey of love and laughter awaits!
