My story

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

Info and pictures of Foxy:

Foxy was dumped in an almond orchard in Fresno near term pregnant. She had her puppies shortly after she was captured by the rescue. She and her puppies went into foster care in Nipomo when the pups were 4 days old. It was evident right away that she did not trust men. It took about a month before she would go up to my husband to be petted. She is very watchful of her surroundings and çan run very fast and change directions very quickly. Probably how she survived in an orchard without being eaten by a coyote. She had been a house dog in the past. She likes soft chairs and is very housebroken. Not one accident in the 3 months I have had her. She also asks before she jumps in your lap. She makes a little yip. I am guessing she is about 2 yrs old. Her teeth are very white and she plays with her pups. She gets spells where she races around the yard and the pups chase her.

She likes to go on walks and sticks her head in every bush looking for something to chase. She loves bully sticks and likes to play tug-o-war. She would be an excellent companion and watch dog for a retired person or couple.
Foxy is up to date on all her shots and is spayed and microchipped. She can be seen here in Nipomo once the application has been submitted and approved. She can also be picked up here when adopted.
