My story

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

Please contact foster parent at jsmaldone1@gmail.com

•Overall very sweet, funny personality
•House trained, crate-trained (loves her crate)
•Great with every person she has met, including some children (people love her ears and smile)
•Dog friendly - great with every dog she has interacted with. Get’s overly excited and wants to meet every dog, but ultimately just wants to play
•Have explored multiple places in public, including the Whitewater Center, breweries, coffee shops, Lowes and neighborhood parks
•Somewhat treat motivated - takes treats very gentle
•High energy and loves to run around/play fetch/explore, but relaxes hard and will snuggle right up with you on the couch when it’s time to chill
•She has gotten along great with our 9 y/o female pit mix at home and loves playing with her. Has had some moments of resource guarding with her crate and a toy
•Walks well but likes to pull, especially when other dogs are walking by. Currently in training to improve those habits. Could benefit from somebody that has experience with leash and command training.
•Knows sit and paw
•Can be mouthy at times, similar to a puppy.
•Very photogenic
•Unsure if cat-friendly

*Scheduled to be spayed June 25th
