Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Electra’s Big Sleepover
One magical day a volunteer said, “Wanna sleep over?” I did not play it cool. First came the car. I hopped in like a pro and watched the world go by, quietly thinking big dog thoughts. Then—IHOP. So many humans! I tried to say hi to everyone because manners matter and also I exist. When my voice popped out, we stepped outside. I’m polite like that.
At the house, I learned the rules. I had one oops while we figured out my potty schedule, then I nailed it. Backyard was nice, but when I was done, I barked once and waited at the door like a lady. I can entertain myself with toys! My favorite game is tossing a stuffy in the air and catching it with a head shake.
Walks? Oh yes. I have places to be and squirrels to check on, so I pull a little. I can’t help it—I love adventures. But after all that, I turned into a snuggle expert (just ask my roommate). Kisses, cuddles, whole-body love.
I started the sleepover jumpy and loud. I ended it calm, cozy, and curled up like I belonged. The volunteer says the shelter doesn’t show the real me—I’m cute, clever, loving, and a total joy to be around. Seventeen hours later, I went back to the shelter… but I left my heart on that couch.
Now that I know how good life can be, I ready for my forever couch.
This fun cutie has participated in shelter playgroups and may enjoy a compatible canine friend in her new home. She`s previously shared her shelter suite with a very rude bitey puppy, and she`s helping him (and us!) by teaching him some manners. Nanny dogs are really good at teaching rude puppies about bite inhibition, and she`s doing a great job. She`s a helper dog in playgroups, and she is able to play with the big rude dogs and teach some manners and burn off some of their energy. Looking for a buddy for your dog? Bring him/her to the shelter for a meet and greet and see if we`re a match! Check out her playgroup video here:
