Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Glazed ham or "Hammy" as we have been calling her has been with us for a few days now. She is such a snuggly sweet girl! She has been very chill. She has had no problems her crate, going outside, barking, our kids, or our chickens. She hasn't gotten into any trash, chewed on anything, or figured out our pantry is wide open. She hasn't shown any food aggression and is very good at playing fetch! The only time she jumps is when she gets excited when you are showing her affection and she quickly will stay down if you just come down to her level. She is so happy to be cuddled with and pet and she will show her appreciation by giving you lots of doggy kisses. She has barked at someone outside once so far. As a powerful girl, her tail can give quite a "thwap" and may not be a pleasant for someone who's face is more in line with the height of her tail. When her tail wags, her entire back half wags! She is VERY interested in our cat who just wants to run when she gets close which makes Hammy want to chase her which scares the cat, so they haven't had the chance to interact very closely yet.
