Fall River Forever Paws Floria is 42lbs of sunshine and immediately friendly with everyone

Are you in the market for a perfect petite pittie princess?

You are now.

Meet Fall River Forever Paws Pet of the Week Floria!

Floria is 42lbs of sunshine. She’s got the most smoochable snoot, the most emotive ears, and the silliest smile in all the land. She feels like warm velvet. Her kisses are top tier.

Basically she’s perfect.

Forever Paws is still trying to teach her how to walk on a leash like a lady and not a loose cannon, though. Right now, her favorite hobby is getting under your feet, getting herself stepped on, and then shouting at you for stepping on her like she didn’t purposely put herself there because she has to be as close to you as physically possible. She DOES listen to corrections, but you have to be on top of it or she’ll choke herself out trying to explore everything.

Floria is immediately friendly with everyone. She’s another one that doesn’t understand the concept of “stranger danger”. If you have a pulse, you’re her friend. No takesies-backsies. She’ll run straight into your arms in slow motion like it’s Baywatch if you give her the chance. She would rather play with her handler/human than toys, though she has shown mild interest when a squeaky toy or a ball is thrown.

She does well with other dogs and has shown no red flags in her interactions with them, just lots of happy, playful, excited energy. She’s afraid of cats, so Forever Paws would prefer a home without them. Kids 10+ would be great but exceptions can be made for the right family.

Since she is a “restricted breed”, you must own your own home or live in a home owned by a family member.
