Story
Caesar Augustus is a handsome, sturdy little fellow, with a shiny black coat and tan and white markings. He may be a min pin mix.
Devastatingly debonair, Caesar Augustus is waiting for his special family (adults only or adults and older children), upon whom he can shower his devotion and entertain with his antics. He is just the dearest little thing! Caesar needs someone who is home at least part time or a family with opposite work schedules (he needs to go out for pee breaks ~ every 4.5 hours at most). And he needs a detached home with a fenced yard. Caesar lived successfully and affectionately with another small dog previously, so he'd enjoy a home with another small dog. He is curious about cats but not aggressive. Still, he'd rather chase them, which, of course, they don't relish; so we are saying no cats.
Caesar likes to indulge in outdoor sports (running, wrestling with a small dog, playing chase) off and on during the day in the yard, and he adores lying out in the sun watching the birds. He particularly likes to play ball, and sometimes even brings it back (see videos)! When it's time for a walk, he is absolutely ecstatic! Wag, twirl, wag, twirl, wag, twirl, wag! He is very good at meeting small dogs while on a leash (see video of a dog he'd never seen before!).
Then he's ready to come in to spend loving and companionable times with his person. Caesar is affectionate but not needy. He likes to sit on the couch next to you; or if he gets there first and lies in your spot, he will either move over when told or is obedient and understanding when you move him. He also likes to follow you around the house; but he's also happy in a room with a doorway gate, and often chooses to be in his crate (no need to lock the door--he never ruins anything in the home).
Caesar sleeps through the night without a peep. And if by chance you're aren't awake when he wakes up (~7 to 7:30 am), he will come into your bedroom and stand at your bedside to let you know he has to go out.
Caesar loves his Pet Pantry Chicken & Rice food, and jumps all around and wags furiously in anticipation, yet often waits until you sit down to eat before he eats (1/2 cup twice a day).
A clever little dog, Caesar knows Sit, Stay, Come, Wait, Go out? and Move Over. Anyone would be lucky to have Caesar in their family!
Caesar Augustus was surrendered to a local shelter when the family moved.
