about BACON

Hi there, friends! My name is Bacon. I love to eat bacon, so when they started saying it every time they looked at me I couldn’t help but love it! I’m a happy, wiggly guy who wants to explore everything the world offers.

 

​I “sizzle” when I get excited to see people. My whole body wiggles and I can’t get to you fast enough. Apparently, it’s adorable, and I get all sorts of “ooohs” and “awwws” from it, so I will keep it up! I’m also “housetrained,” so they say. I’ve only ever had accidents when I was on special medicine for my heartworm treatment. Being “housetrained” means I have more time to explore the house because I remember going to potty outside. I love exploring new things outside but go potty first so I don’t forget. This makes my foster mom so happy, and when it’s crazy hot outside, it makes me happy that we get back inside right away! I’m not a fan of hot, humid weather. Time will tell what I think of the cold Midwest winters!

 

I am not a fan of the feline variety of companions, but I don’t seem to mind other dogs as long as there is a proper introduction. I get along well with my canine friends in my foster home! We play and play and play, then nap, eat, and play some more! I had no idea life could be so easy! I don’t always like to share my bones or high-value food with other dogs. Foster mom and dad make sure we don’t have any real bones or food to argue over by picking them up. If it’s not on the floor, it doesn’t count in my book :)

 

​I don’t mind being the only dog, though. I can nap and play independently for hours, only coming up to occasionally get a few scratches on the head. I love to play with toys and bones. I flip and flop them around and chase them everywhere. I am told I can’t get too crazy right now, but once I’m heartworm-free, I will go hog-wild (get it, because I’m Bacon! - my foster dad is teaching me great “dad jokes”). I like to fetch and let you chase me playfully for a bit; then I bring the ball back to fetch again. I can forget my size, so sometimes my wiggles and exuberance can be a bit much for little ones at first, but I’m learning to calm down around smaller people.

 

I love making people happy, so learning new tricks is right up my alley! As I’ve gotten more comfortable in my foster home, I’m told I’m getting a little sneakier and more mischievous. Sometimes if food is on the counter, I try to get a better look. That’s all I’m doing, I swear! We’re working on this, though; I’m a great listener. You say “no” or “ah ah,” and I’m down with four on the floor! I’m learning my basic commands, and I’m doing great. My leash-walking skills are coming along as well. I am a perfect gentle dog in my crate. I don’t try to escape or make a big scene about it. I’ve learned that it’s my space, and I crate myself to relax sometimes (but only when my foster mom is nearby).

 

My foster family says they can’t wait to see my true character shine once I get healthy and comfy in my surroundings. I’m goofy, but trust is something that takes a while to come by for me, so for now, we’re just living every day to its best. Life is on the up and up and I can’t wait to meet my forever family. Is it you???
