Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello World!
My name is Ladylike Lacey and I’m a darling little girl of six, weighing about 12 or 13 pounds and quite masterful at knowing how to love and be loved. You see, I’m what you might call ’a Bond girl’. Now you probably think that has something to do with 007 but in my case it simply means I like to bond with my people! I have so much love to give and I truly enjoy getting love in return! I also have a well-deserved reputation for being a champion cuddler and your very best friend.
Mom says I’m a sensitive girl who is happy, smart, and sweet. (She thinks that’s a great combination.) Dad says I’m housebroken (and drum roll please, have had no accidents, ever! Why I will even go out in the rain!- and this year that has been amazing!) I know a number of commands like ‘sit’, ’shake hands’ and ‘come’ ( Well I do that most of the time) But my happiest time is when I am cuddling close to Mom or going with Mom on adventures.
I like to go for walks and meet and greet people along the way. Want to go for a ride? Yipee! I sit quietly in the car, not making any noise or missing a thing. Truly every day is an amazing adventure– and as long as I’m close to my people, I’m loving every second of my life! When it’s time for bed I wait patiently for Mom to call me, then I jump up on the Big Peoples bed and cuddle close all night long.
I’ll bet you think I’m pretty close to perfect (and so do Mom and Dad.) There is one thing that I am working on very hard and wanted you to know. I am a little shy and anxious in a new situation- or when left alone at first. With a little time and patience I become more comfortable and at ease.
The challenge in my life is that Mom and Dad have these other young and rambunctious, playful furkids. They take a LOT of their time and energy – and as the little ladylike fluff that I am, I sit quietly back and observe but I also feel left out. I’m too dainty and demure to do play like those other pups do – in fact they are pretty rowdy and loud. It’s not that I don’t like them. It’s just that they are overwhelming and I don’t like having to share Mom and Dad with them. I would much prefer to be the center of someone’s world and be their one and only.
So if you are looking for a darling little companion who is easy going and well behaved, has no needs other than to love and be loved (with lots of cuddles thrown in), please hurry and fill out an application because I’m waiting to meet you.
Tail wags and doggy kisses,
Lovable, Loyal and Ladylike Lacey
