Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Health Issues
- None
Temperament
- Playful and spirited girl.
- People friendly. She may be a bit reserved when first meeting new people but warms up quickly.
- Can exhibit some reactivity to other dogs when on-leash or behind a fence.
- With proper introductions and strictly supervised visits, she has enjoyed playtime with other dogs. She does best with calm dogs that tolerate her nipping and in-your-face style of play.
- High energy dog. But very happy to relax and cuddle once she’s had her required amount of exercise.
- Can be slightly destructive when bored.
- Although not much of a swimmer (yet), she enjoys playing in water.
- Responds well to verbal cues and attempts to redirect her attention.
- Her leash skills and basic obedience are improving and she seems to enjoy one-on-one training sessions.
Owner Suitability
- Enjoys being a part of day-to-day activities and would benefit from a home in which people are around most of the day.
- Would benefit from an experienced owner, that is committed to working with her to reinforce rules and boundaries to keep her from mouthing and reacting to other dogs.
- Needs a high level of exercise. Would benefit from daily walks and opportunities to play throughout the day.
- Best suited to an active family with older children due to her high energy. Younger children are not recommended due to her current puppy behavior of nipping in excitement.
- Moderate-high prey drive. Likes to chase squirrels and birds.
- A fenced yard is a must. She is a curious girl and enjoys opportunities to explore.
- Best suited to a home with no other dogs.
- Can happily live in a home with cats. She does show occasional interest in playing, but is very respectful of the cat not wanting to engage.
