From the Foster:

Rico is doing great! I've only had him for 2.5 days but he is seriously such a sweet & cuddly little peanut!!! He LOVES both myself and his foster daddy. And he LOVES food. He went potty (#1) in the house a lot the first day & a half, but he has done excellent since then. I do have disposable belly bands on him now and that helps a lot. He didn't go potty at all the whole night last night! So he's adjusting very well!

He doesn't really have anything to do with my 2 resident dogs. They are both small Chihuahua mixes. He mostly just ignores them, until one of them gets close to his food, then he gets a little upset. I'm waiting to see if that goes away after they get to know each other and they start getting more comfortable with each other. He doesn't play with toys yet and he doesn't like any treats. He mostly just sleeps ALL day and ALL night! He sleeps in an X pen at night right now with a bed inside and a kennel with a blanket, so he has the option of where to sleep. The first night he whined for about 15 minutes then slept the whole night without making a sound. Last night he whined for about 5 minutes, then went right to sleep. I think he would do just fine sleeping in bed with us at night, I'm just waiting for all 3 dogs to get more comfortable with each other first.

He is just a really good boy and he would love to cuddle up in your lap and sleep all day long! He would really make a great companion for someone!
