Maurice is quickly coming around after being a tad shy & skittish and getting very comfortable in his foster home. He loves to run around the house looking for his foster siblings. As much as he loves to frolic about, he will just as quickly run right into his foster parents laps the moment they try to sit on the couch or floor. He wants to be the center of his fosters parents attention and will shove his way into a lap , even if that means stepping over his foster siblings to get the best spot. He is very loving and enjoys head and belly rubs a lot. He is getting better being crated during the day, and does well in the crate at night ; he likes to go to bed in the crate around 9pm and will burrow himself into his blankets. Maurice has so much love to give to that special family that is looking for this amazing little guy!  Check out his video below!
