Things to know about Fritz. He is a sweet and adorable 8-pound guy. He is loving, loyal, and totally adorable. He is fearless and has a very independent personality but follows his people around like a shadow. He has a very sweet temperament and charms everyone he meets. Fritz would fit well in just about every household. He would be especially happy with someone who is home most of the time to hang out with him relaxing on the couch, playing, or going for walks. 

Fritz is house trained; however, he will mark occasionally. He is also crate trained. Fritz enjoys going for walks on a leash around his neighborhood. However, he needs training to learn to control his urge to bark at some people and dogs. He is never aggressive. He just likes to bark. He would like to have a yard to play in and explore at his new home. However, when he goes outside, he needs to be supervised closely. A secure fence is a must. Fritz moves fast and jumps high and is a flight risk.

He enjoys car rides and is always ready to hop in and hit the road. Fritz loves people including children. He barks at strangers until he is introduced. After that he warms up quickly. He gets along with the other dogs in his foster home. Fritz is not a vocal dog and should be fine living in a home with shared walls including apartments and townhouses as long as he has a securely fenced yard.

When we asked his foster mom what she likes most about Fritz, she said, “Fritz is a sweet little explorer who is fearless despite his tiny size and energetic despite his age. He's missing a few teeth, but it only makes him more lovable, especially when his tongue flops out of his mouth when he's relaxed. He is more than happy to snuggle the day away under a blanket. He is also a high-five master and will gladly give you five for a belly rub.”

Fritz is currently living in Washington, DC with his foster mom Cora. For additional information, please contact her at coramandy@gmail.com .
