About Fila

Fila is a delightful 15-week-old Russian Tsvetnaya Bolonka, brimming with puppy energy. As he continues to grow, he'll weigh between 10 to 12 pounds—currently, he's a charming 6 pounds. Living it up in his foster home, Fila enjoys age-appropriate training and lots of love from his foster family. He's making great strides with house training and leash manners, but being a little guy with a developing bladder means he needs regular outdoor time and shouldn’t be left alone for long periods. Fila is in that playful, toddler phase, which means he thrives on oversight and structure. Implementing a routine now will set the foundation for a loving companion in the years to come. He gets along well with children, cats, and other dogs, making him a versatile addition to any household.
