My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

LITTLE GIRL is a 9 year old spayed yellow female who weighs 92 pounds (can stand to lose 5-10 lbs). Poor Little Girl is looking for her forever family again at 9 years old. Her momma was elderly and could no longer take care of her as needed and was also recently hospitalized so the family asked for our help. Little Girl is very sweet and well mannered. She is housebroken and had free run of the house at all times. She is good with other dogs and enjoyed running and playing with another dog at a temporary foster she was at before coming to us. She knows some commands and is very eager to please. Little Girl is very affectionate and will nuzzle in for attention. She has a mean lab lean and loves to lay on the couch with you. She gets very excited when she sees a leash and loves to ride! She's approved for kids aged 10+.

Update (8/25): Well, I enjoyed walking in the woods a lot more today - even checked some things out; Foster Mom was glad I wasn’t scared this time. Foster Dad brought a cat into the room where I am staying; I wasn’t really sure what it was, so I just sat and watched him walk around. After a while, I went over and stuck my paw out to see if he wanted to play, but he didn’t do anything so I walked away. Foster Dad told me the cat is blind so he couldn’t see my paw; I don’t know what that means so maybe I will try later. I was a little worried when the cat got too close to my Kong fox, so I went over to sit with it so he couldn’t hurt it.

I also met the four resident dogs and two foster dogs and things went pretty well. Most sniffed or kissed and a couple of times we chased the ball and nobody got snarky. They taught me how to use the dog door and how to look out the cat door; they said I’m a fast learner but that drinking out of the toilet will complete the trifecta. I do think I may want to keep my crate with me so I have a spot that’s all my own.

Later, I went in with the two blind cats and hopped up on the bed with them; then the epileptic kitty climbed out from under the bed and started headbutting me. I was the one on the leash, but he was the one who needed to be!
