My story

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

Toesie Rosie, better known as Pippi Rose Longstocking (bc of Pippi`s ponytails and Rosie`s ears, is the sweetest soul you will ever meet. She is full of energy and needs a fenced in yard or would need to be walked with a leash. She wants to be in your lap on the couch, which I discouraged, but my husband came in off the road (truck driver, cross country) and allowed her in his lap. I would sit on the floor with her. She loves belly rubs and she loves car rides. She does have a fear of a bath tub and a water hose. I do not know why. While I fostered her, I would go outside and use a cleaning rag, shampoo and 2 small bathroom size trash cans to bath and rinse her. She was more worried about chasing the birds, squirrels and rabbits. Pippi Rose will sit. She is kennel trained for night and when someone is not at the house. I have taught her `no snatch, eeeasy` when she excepts a treat. She will do it gently and not gobble if you tell her this. Yes, she loves treats. She had Beggings, small Purina bites and big Purina bigger bites, also a burger patty from Tractor Supply. These were all for using the potty outside and also for going in her kennel. She is house trained. She will go to the door. She hasn`t learned to bark to let you know she wants out. I kept a eye on her and looked in the foyer if didn`t see her and she would be
waiting to go outside. It took her 3 weeks to learn to play with dog toys but she now really enjoys it. She really deserves a family who wants a new family member.
