My name is Izzi!

Izzi is so sweet. She is a bit shy and timid at first, but when she warms up to you, she will beg you for scratches under her chin and behind her ears. She’s a bit of a picky, slow eater and gets rather shy and fussy when another dog gets in her space when she’s trying to eat. It’s best she eats in a kennel in a different room where other dogs can’t see her. Other than this, she plays with my dogs (both large and small) very well! She doesn’t know very many cues yet, but we are working on it. She runs away and hides a lot at small things and while she’s definitely not aggressive, she is a a lot more reserved of new people…Possibly making her a flight risk. I keep her leashed in my fenced in yard as a precaution. She has a lot of puppy-like energy once she warms up to her person, though. Like the kind that’s like, “hey I’m gonna get all wiggly and demand you give me attention right now!” She loves to do cute little spins and lays her whole body down really fast before getting up and doing it again. She’s a gentle treat taker and has never growled at me for taking a food bowl, treat, or toy.. she will absolutely bark and growl at another dog though. She hangs out with my 9 y/o daughter and has become her shadow. She adores her. I have a cat but haven’t tested her with him yet, as this stresses my cat a lot. She keeps her kennel clean, but sometimes she has accidents in my house still. She’s a bit fussy if you don’t pay attention to her right away, but this just means she wants to be your best friend 24/7!
