My story

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

*Thump thump thump* Oh good morning! Did my tail wagging wake you? I'm so sorry... it's just that it's the weekend and I thought you might like to spend it with me! You know, snuggling on the sofa, taking a walk on the beach in the spring sunshine, that kind of thing. We could do it together. You'd love it. And... well... I'd love it, too. I am a grown-ass adult, about 2 years old. I am all done with that sharky, naughty puppy stuff and through the crazy-making teenage dog stage, too. What you see is what you get, which in my case is a fantastically friendly, playful, athletic young lady, who is also expert at snuggling on the bed or sofa while you chill with a good movie. I am certainly old enough to know my perfect family when they come to find me. I am very sweet and very smart. I love to play those games where I do things for you (like sitting down), and you feed me delicious treats and tell me how fabulous and brilliant I am. I could play games like that all day.
I love to go for a good romp or hike, and am also perfectly happy to join you on shorter walks.
I love to "critter" and playing with a flirt pole or chasing toys are some of my favourite hobbies.
I have never met a human I didn’t like, and I know I would just love your friends and family. I am learning to ride in the car and am a great copilot. I am an excellent cuddle-bug, and will allow you to pet my soft, silky coat and gaze into my warm brown eyes as long as you would like. I am an easy going girl and am happy curling up next to you while you watch old movies in the evenings.
I live with some other nice dogs and puppies and I put up with them, but I would prefer to have you as the center of my world, and not to have to share my comfy bed (or your lap) with other dogs, and I really prefer to dine alone. I will happily share all of these lovely spaces and things with people and polite dogs, but I find puppies and pushy dogs really annoying.

I am fully vaccinated, spayed, and healthy.
