About Tofu

Tofu is a playful young boy who enjoys chasing rubber balls with enthusiasm. He can be a bit apprehensive around new people and dogs, often communicating his discomfort through barking or growling. A patient family that allows him the space he needs will be essential for his adjustment. After some time, he tends to warm up, especially to female dogs, as he has had positive experiences living with a female puppy. However, larger male dogs and overly energetic companions may not be his favorite. While Tofu has been around a nine-year-old child, he takes time to feel comfortable, so a mature home would suit him best. He is crate trained and typically behaves well when free roaming, though he may have the occasional potty accident if alone for extended hours. Tofu needs a gentle, understanding environment to develop his confidence around unfamiliar people and situations.
