Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Miss Liza. She is a people pleaser and is very eager to be with her people. Liza attaches quickly to her caregiver, and there are times that she needs to be reminded that she can have a life of her own! ;) She’s learning that her people aren’t going to disappear, and she can relax even if they aren’t right there. Liza is a 4 year old, 52 pound retriever mix. She was treated for heart worm in the fall, and has been restored to full health and is now testing negative for heartworm. She’s a high energy girl who loves to run, loves to walk, loves to play fetch…loves to move! She is house trained, crate trained, and she walks well on a leash with a confident leader. She knows sit and come, and she has an excellent recall (especially if you have a ball!), she also is very close to understanding ‘stay.’ She’s very eager to play with other dogs, and can be a bit pushy so would do best with an equally playful dog of her size. Due to her excitability and strong desire to play with dogs, we are specifically looking for a home for her that does not have small dogs as we do not feel she would respect their boundaries. She lived with a cat in her foster home and did okay with that. Still proper and slow introductions are a must with the feline species! She hasn’t spent any time with children, but with her high energy, we think that she will do best with older children. She would make an excellent hiking or running partner for an active owner. Foster mom says that she exercises Liza an average of an hour a day, and after that….Liza might think about resting! And you should know that Liza can be a very aggressive snuggler! She absolutely loves to cuddle, and the only nippiness the family has seen has come when she is kissing their ears and chin in her joy at being cuddled! She is learning the ropes of the house, and foster mom has been impressed with how much she has learned in such a short time. Liza is nothing if she is not a quick learner. Foster mom has been amazed at how eager Liza is to please the people of the house. If you meet Liza and see the affection, the eagerness to please, the joyful, playful, bouncy, fun loving girl she is, you will find that she is worth the bit of effort it may take to bring out the confident dog that’s in there!
