My name is Diesel.  I am very thankful that Needy Paws rescued me, and now I’m ready for my forever home.  I was a little older when I was rescued (I’m four months old), so I’m a little shy with strangers.   However, once I know you’re not going to leave me, I’m your shadow.   I’m very treat and food-motivated, and I’m crate-trained and easy to walk on a leash.   I know to potty outside, and I love other doggies.  I watch what my foster siblings do, and I join in also! 

I love to explore outside, so a fence is preferred.  I’m nervous around kids.  It might take me a while to overcome my shyness and give kisses to wee ones. Due to my shyness I will need to go to a home that has another dog in it. I’m a great buddy to anyone looking for a sweet quiet companion. Diesel is a typical puppy that will require ongoing training.
