**Meet and greets for approved applicants must happen within 3 days or the closest weekend (for long travelers). It’s in the dogs/puppies best interest to be placed into their furever homes in a timely fashion. All household members must attend the meet and greet.
Beatrice (“B”) is one of the sweetest dogs I have ever met. She is very eager to please her foster mom. She can be found lying on, next to, or around her foster mom when relaxing or sleeping. When moving around, she is foster mom’s shadow, until she gets bored and decides to go play. She loves to play with her little plush squeaky toys, so keeping those in stock would be a very good idea. She has lightly gnawed on the corners of a table and a bench, so just make sure to check on her every so often throughout the day and give her a chew toy. When foster mom is away at the office, “B” is kenneled. A peanut butter Kong does the trick to get her in her kennel (or any dog food/treats, really.)
Beatrice knows “sit,” and she just learned “down” and “shake.” We are starting to work on “stay” and “off.” She is really smart and is a very quick learner (According to “B,” who wouldn’t learn fast when a treat is up for grabs?)
“B” has had a few accidents (#1) in the house, and it seems to be mostly in the morning / late morning hours. Like with any dog who isn’t completely housebroken, she needs correction and to be taken outside. Already the number of incidents are reducing.
In the short time of fostering “B,” she has been an absolute joy. Her loyalty, her love, and her preciousness and playfulness will capture your heart for years to come. This girl is special.
