Barbie is a spunky, sweet, and energetic girl. Don’t let her small frame fool you, she is a fast and can keep up with the big dogs! She is very affectionate, great with school-aged children, is friendly with other dogs, and absolutely loves to play. She is still potty training so frequent bathroom trips outside are a must. Barbie does let out a little wee when overly excited or when she is showing submissive behavior. Patience with wee is a must! Since Barbie is still on the younger side, she could benefit from one on one training sessions, she is a fast learner but like any toddler- she gets distracted easily! She is always ready for a snack, with that being said she does best when she eats alone or in her kennel. Like toddlers, she wants what other furry friends have like toys, food, and treats but isn’t the best at sharing. Overall, Barbie is still in need of gentle care where affection and bonding time can provide her with feeling safe. She would do great with someone with a big yard or who is able to go for long walks or play sessions. She gets lonely so other furry friends can help her play to get the stimulation she needs.
