Espresso is a handsome boy with a sensitive heart who can feel overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle of the garden. At first, he is very nervous, often shaking, keeping his tail tucked tightly between his legs, and refusing treats altogether. New environments can be scary for him, and he needs a little time and patience to feel safe. Once you slow down and give him a few minutes to earn his trust, everything begins to change. When Espresso realizes he’s safe, he looks to you for comfort and reassurance, leaning into your presence. Before long, he starts to ask for treats in the quietest, sweetest way, simply locking eyes with you and waiting patiently with those beautiful, expressive eyes. Earning his trust is incredibly rewarding, and the bond he forms feels truly special. Espresso is looking for a calm, quiet home where he can learn that the world isn’t such a scary place. He is extremely gentle and sweet, and with the right person, his confidence will continue to grow. After waiting for over three long years for a home, Espresso deserves a loving environment where he can finally feel safe, understood, and cherished every day. *** PLEASE NOTE *** -Age and breed are our best estimates and cannot be guaranteed. -The blue fence is 33.5" tall for height reference. -We are unable to test dogs with cats or children in Turkey due to location and circumstances.
