Note Book is a tender-hearted little pup who is slowly learning that the world isn’t so scary after all. He absolutely wants to play with other dogs and lights up when his foster siblings invite him to join in, though he can still get startled by loud noises or too much commotion. Every day he takes tiny brave steps forward, and it’s incredibly rewarding to watch his personality start to peek through.

This shy boy is very food motivated, which has been a huge help as he learns to trust people and build confidence. Note Book will thrive in a patient, understanding home that can give him the space and gentle encouragement he needs to blossom into the happy, playful dog he’s meant to be.
