　　A Little About Me: I may be a little nugget but I sure can be a sassy one. I am very scared when I first meet people and will shake for a while but it`s hard to be brave at the shelter. Once I get to know you I become quite affectionate and really enjoy being close to my people. I am looking for a family that can see all the potential I have and will give me the time I need to come out of my shell. I need someone to go slow with me and not grab at me even though I am a small boy. I am ready to go home today and will make huge strides once in a home!
