My story

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

https://foha.org/pet/ashland2021/

ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:
Hi, I’m Ashland — a gentle southern soul with endearing ears and a deep loyalty to those I trust. I’m all about peaceful walks, relaxing car rides, and cuddling up with my favorite humans. I walk beautifully on a harness and would love to be your nature-walking buddy.

I’m shy at first, but once I feel safe, I become an affectionate companion who loves belly rubs and silly zoomies in the yard. Because I’m sensitive to new environments and fast introductions, I’m looking for a calm, adult-only home with an experienced adopter who understands dogs like me. I’ll thrive in a quiet, single-family home where I can be the only pet.

HOW AM I WITH DOGS:
I prefer to be the only pup in the home. Other dogs stress me out — I shine best solo!

HOW AM I WITH CATS:
Not a good match — please, no cats.

HOW AM I WITH KIDS:
I need a home without children.

I KNOW THE FOLLOWING COMMANDS:
Sit and Down — no treats required, just love!

MY HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING:
I do well in calm environments and adapt to routines. FOHA can provide more specifics.

THINGS I LIKE:
Long, quiet walks • Snuggling on the couch • Treats • Belly rubs • Riding in the car

THINGS I DISLIKE:
Crowds • Sudden noise • Fast introductions • City life • Other dogs on leash
