Here's what the humans have to say about me:
You’ve gotta love a gal who will dance on her hind legs for dinner!
Fern is first and foremost a lover who wants to play or be petted as much as possible! From the first day, Fern has gotten along famously with her three foster dog siblings and has loved everybody she’s met! Fern has not met kids or cats, and is sure to love children and might get along with a dog-friendly cat! Fern is quiet and well-behaved indoors, and loves food and treats! Fern is adorable and so people-friendly that you’ll quickly feel like you’ve known her forever.
* Fern adores people and loves to be cuddled, held and petted. She sat on the vet tech’s lap while her paperwork was being filled out.
* Fern likes other dogs and loves to play. She can hold her own with bigger dogs as long as they respect her petite size.
* If one of the other dogs is not up for playing, Fern entertains herself with a toy.
* Fern has such good indoor manners that she has not been crated.
* Fern knows sit, and will dance on her back legs as dinner is being served!
Fern is totally relaxed and friendly all the time--unless she is chasing squirrels. She’ll happily keep your backyard squirrel free! Fern is a great dog and will be a wonderful companion for you!
