Pooton Temperament
Pootons are incredibly sweet and playful. With seemingly boundless energy and sociableness, they love playing around with other humans, dogs, and even cats. This makes them great family pets, as the one thing that Pootons hate the most is being left alone for too long. Their small size allows them to get along well with children or smaller pets, and their intelligence makes them easy to train.
Pooton Appearance
Pootons are your typical toy dog breed. The largest a healthy Pooton will get is up to 15 pounds in weight and 12 inches in height. Their coats are curly and medium-length, so they are non shedding (an excellent choice, then, for individuals with allergies). Many Pootons have cream or brown-colored fur, but you may also find mixes of white, black, and gray within their coats as well.
Caring for Pootons
Just like any breed, Pootons require love and care from their owners. Since they’re energetic by nature, they will need a bit more activity in their daily routines than other breeds. A daily walk combined with games of fetch or tug-of-war is enough to keep them happy. Additionally, brushing their curly coats daily will ensure that their fur remains healthy and tangle-free. Pootons also have floppy ears, so as you’re brushing them, be sure to check and clean their ears of dirt.
