Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Winnie is a 4.5 yr old cattle dog mix who has had excellent training with Christina Donahoe at K9 Inclined Dog Training!! Christina has wonderful things to say about Winnie and provides training sessions in person or virtually to the family that adopts Winnie so they are set for success.
Winnie is house and crate trained.
She has good manners in the house.
Will only bark a bit at noises and people coming to the door, but settles down quickly.
Sleeps at night on her dog bed or in her crate (door left open)
Prefers to be an only dog
Can be cat friendly, but needs to have an owner that sets clear boundaries for her Around the cat.
Moderate activity level. Loves to go on her walks, and will entertain herself by tossing her toys around.
Walks well on leash.
Rides ok in the car but it's not her favorite.
commands known: sit, down, off, quiet, "let's go" (her version of heel), come, no
Treat motivated (all treats)
You can sometimes trigger zoomies if you blow gently in her face! It's so fun to watch.
Her true live is people.
Older kids would be fine.
She does prefer to be around her humans but will go into another room to nap and occasionally will even go into her crate on her own.
Winnie is an incredibly smart dog, who loves to be around her people. She loves to cuddle, but is also fine just napping. Around other dogs, Winnie needs to be on-leash and have her human give her clear guidance. She's made tremendous progress, but like with people, can have a rough day where she takes a step back. Winnie would thrive in a house with a yard and with a person (or preferably a few people) that are willing to take the time to continue building on her training.
She's fully vetted, up to date on shots, spayed, heartworm negative and know prevention.
