Picasso isn’t the kind of dog who eases into life quietly—he jumps right in and figures it out on the go.

This 9-pound, 12-inch-tall small breed mix is currently fostered at Dreamweaver Farms in Pacolet, SC, and even as a young dog still learning the ropes, he already acts like the world is one big playground waiting to be explored. He’s been neutered, and with an adoption fee of $499, he’s ready for a home that can match his enthusiasm for life.

One thing is immediately clear: Picasso is not built for boredom.
