My story

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

Hello my name is Tulip and I am such a sweet and loving girl! I love everyone I've met so far though I haven't met kids just yet. When I was in foster care, my fosters had some repair men over and I wanted to great all of them! I love to play and run around in the yard and I love toys. I like to keep my toys in my crate. My crate was left open in the home so I can go in and out as I like. I tend to hang out in my crate but when you are down on the floor then I want to be there right in the middle of what you are doing to give you kisses!

Though I came to the shelter to have a place to take care of my pups, I still act like a pup myself! That comes with both good and bad things. While I love to play and make as many friends as I can, I also like to chew on things that maybe I shouldn't chew on. Because of this it would be best if I was in my crate when I'm home alone.

I'm a big chewer so I'd do great with chew toys in the home! I get bored if I have the same toy every day so I'll need a wide selection. I'm very gentle when you go to take a toy from me! Oh, I should probably mention a few things I don't like right? I don't like the rain, the hose, or bath time. I can be coaxed out in the rain with a squeaky toy though!

If you are looking for a sweet, loyal, and loving girl then come visit with me!
