Notes from It's The Pits
MEET MANCHEGO AKA MANNY— 55 LBS OF BIG, DOPEY PUPPY! Calling all cheese lovers!
Manchego is an absolute sweetheart who’s still figuring out those big paws of his! He’s around 55 lbs, still underweight, and doesn’t quite realize how big he is yet. He's estimated to be about 8 months old, possibly less.
❤️ Very sweet & affectionate Got along with his foster’s dog right away and is super respectful of her Playful puppy energy Very food motivated No mouthing, biting or nibbling people Comfortable on leash, but still polishing his walking skills ✂️ Recently neutered
Manchego wants to potty outside and does great when given regular opportunities—he’s just still learning to ask when he needs to go.
He’s not a fan of the crate or being away from his people yet, but once this big baby falls asleep, he sleeps through the entire night with no potty breaks!
Manchego is a goofy, lovable puppy who just needs a family to help him keep learning and growing. With those giant paws, we have a feeling there’s even more Manchego to love! ❤️
