Information

Hope was found in the middle of a busy road in NC. Thankfully she had rescue friends to save her.

How scared Hope must have been to be all by herself in her blind/deaf world! There are better days ahead for this sweet girl!

Hope is a great little pup and very sweet. She loves to be with her person and play, and she loves to give kisses. Hope also loves belly rubs.

Hope loves her expen and does ride well in a crate in the car. She loves toys and she tries very hard to try to locate the other dogs in her foster home to play. Her favorite snacks are baby carrots and green beans.

Hope is new to her foster home so we are working on housetraining and walking on a leash. Hope is a little jumpy and will nip at your legs when walking. She gets so excited because she loves the outdoors. We are working on some touch signs. Hope is doing well with a tap on the back of the neck for "follow me".

Hope would do better with older children and should never to be off a leash outside of a fenced yard.
