Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Name: Fiddle
Nicknames: Fiddlesticks! FrankenFiddle.
Breed: Boston Terrier
Sex: Female
Age: 20 weeks
Weight: ~15 lbs.
Before OMD: Found herself at the city shelter with a prominent limp and lacerations to her front leg. We got her straight to the vet to treat the lacerations, and it was ultimately determined that she had a fractured leg that had already begun to heal. Her lacerations healed, she has regained full use of her leg, and only limps occasionally.
Energy level: Puppy medium, but overall pretty even-keeled. She loves to play, get into mischief, romp,and partake in expected puppy shenanigans. However, she also makes the perfect cuddly movie companion and doesn’t make a peep. (no rude butting in with comments and questions)
Descriptors: Playful. Confident. Sweet. Mischievous. Hypnotizing...you fall in love the minute you meet her, her face and ears are ridiculous after all.
What we love: When she falls asleep in the crook of foster mom's arm, or behind her back, usually with a paw draped over her. Her perfect peek-a-boo tongue. How she loves to give kisses with said tongue, and thinks receiving kisses is pretty great too.
Cuteness alert: She snores but it’s quiet enough where you think “aw, how cute” and not “oh my, we adopted a trucker”
Puppy freshness: She’s a shoe gal. Hide your sneakers; hide your slippers. She also dabbles in gardening (with her mouth) inside and outside, and woodworking...with her mouth.
Dogs: Please! She has been fostered with dogs of all sizes and loves ‘em. Her goal in life is to get her foster siblings to play with her. Heads up though, she tends to play a little rough (has been known to hang onto jowls, ears, collars, legs, etc) and is still learning that corrections don’t have a 15 second time limit so patient, puppy-tolerant pups are great.
Cats: We don’t see why not.
Kids: Gentle dog-savvy ones, please. She’s little and also a little nibbly.
House-trained: Nope, but working on it. Insider tip – sometimes she gets really into playtime and forgets to take a pee break, so keep an eye out!
Crate-trained: Yes, but she has FOMO. She does great when it’s quiet but wants to be part of the action if people are home and her canine companions are out and about.
Fiddle is vaccinated, heartworm negative, and microchipped. She is available for adoption to CT and surrounding states. If you are interested in adopting, please complete an application from omdrescue.org
