Turtle is a big, beefy boy who has somehow missed the memo that he is not, in fact, a lap dog. At a perfect 3 years old, he knows exactly what he wants most in life: snuggles, love, and plenty of pets. When he’s happily getting attention, Turtle purrs like a cat, making it very clear that affection is his favorite thing. He’s gentle with toys and does well in play group, but his real talent is being a big, lovable cuddlebug. Turtle may look like he could take up an entire couch, but given the choice, he’d probably take up your lap instead.
