Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hey, thanks for clicking on my link. My name is Reese and I’m a spunky and silly 9 year old Silky Terrier. I haven’t had the best of luck with homes. My first home decided they didn’t have enough time for me and my second home had to give me up due to medical reasons. My current foster home is really neat. They have 4 other dogs! This makes me feel comfortable, and they’re fun to play, too! My foster parents understand that I’m not completely comfortable around people and they are giving me the space that I need to get used to them. I do like to follow my foster parents around and get pets here and there. I like to give them little kisses, too. I’m completely housebroken and sleep quietly in my crate at night. I’m looking for a special home; one that understands that I need to go slowly. Although I have exceptional leash manners, even when walking with a pack of dogs, I would do best in a home with a fenced in yard. This will allow me to relieve myself unleashed until I warm up to my new family and feel safe when they leash me for walks. I’d really like a canine sibling or two with whom to play. I’ve heard of cats, but I haven’t met one, so I’m not sure if I like them. My foster parents can cat test me if you’re interested. I’m very photogenic so be sure to check out my photos, videos, and updates on facebook at my foster mom's page at www.facebook.com/adoptmyfosterdogs.
