Smiley Meeko is an instant hit! Affectionate, playful and bursting with personality, he’s got the good looks to match his wonderful character.
Meeko hasn’t had the easiest start in life and can be a sensitive soul. He may initially feel unsure around strangers, particularly if they approach his space too quickly, so visitors and introductions will need to be managed carefully and sensitively. Give him a little time, kindness and patience, though, and you’ll soon discover the loving, devoted boy hiding beneath that initial uncertainty.
Meeko is a real foodie, and the quickest way to his heart is through his tummy! Offer him a tasty treat and you’ll have a friend for life. He’s incredibly bright, loves learning and picks things up in no time. Eager to please and wonderfully responsive to training, he’s an absolute joy to work with. And then there’s his other great love… tennis balls! Meeko firmly believes that ball is life, and with a trusty tennis ball in hand, you’ll have his undivided attention!
An outdoor enthusiast through and through, Meeko is always ready for his next adventure. Whether it’s exploring new places or splashing about in the water, he’s happiest when he’s out and about. He’s a real water baby who loves to swim, so an active home that can offer him plenty of exercise, enrichment and opportunities to explore would be ideal.
Meeko would benefit from a quieter home without young children, including visiting children, where he can feel safe and settled. He’d also love someone around for most of the day to help him adjust to his new life. He’ll need a little patience and understanding as he continues to develop his toilet training and learns that being left alone can become easier with time.
Meeko is great with other dogs and particularly enjoys the company of the ladies! A calm, steady female canine companion could be a wonderful match for him. He cannot live with cats.
As Meeko is an excitable boy who can pull enthusiastically on the lead, ongoing training and patient, consistent guidance will help him develop his walking skills and make the most of his adventures.
With the right home, a little understanding and someone willing to help him continue learning, Meeko has all the makings of a truly wonderful companion. He’s a clever, affectionate and fun-loving boy with so much to offer, just waiting for someone to see his potential and give him the happy future he deserves.
