My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This is Ramona.

We call her Miss Mona.
Mona has lots of love to give to a female owner or household. However, with lots of trust earning and patience, one man might not be too bad. She could learn to show love to a patient man that has lots of time to devote to her.

She really isn't fond of the other dogs. Other dogs have been mean to her in the past, so she has some PTSD. Smaller animals, like cats, probably won't like her either, as she likes to chase them.

She is super gentle taking treats from hands, and has no food aggression. She is also very food motivated, and loves to please her people.

Miss Mona is fully potty trained, but sometimes is a little too subtle when it comes to letting you know she needs to go outside. She had a doggy door in her foster home, and she loved that.

Mona is just fine being left alone when gone for short periods of time. She hasn't been given the chance to free roam for a full day, but so far, no destructive behavior.

She likes to chew! So, toys made for mega chewers, she loves the most. She likes to shred her stuffed toys, but won't try and shred anything that wasn't given to her. She absolutely loves to fetch, as well, and thoroughly enjoys being outdoors.

Currently, our staff are working with her on her leash manners. We haven't had much luck in a harness, but a Gentle Leader head collar works the best. We have a trainer come out once a week to help her socialize with other dogs, and people. She can be stingy with her toys and food, so that's another thing we're working on.

She is active, so she would love a yard to play in or a walking/running buddy. She is SUPER sweet and friendly. Her tail goes non stop when she's happy.
Ramona is short and thick, around 40-50 lbs but in a very compact package.
