Hi, I’m Meredith. Affectionately called Scaredy-Mere or Mere-Bear. From my nicknames, you might’ve already guessed that I am still fearful of strangers, but I am also a bit of a cuddle bug. It doesn’t take too long for me to open up, though! After some TLC and patience for a day or so, I’ll let you know when I’m ready. If you give me a chance, I might even come right up to you, with my cold, wet nose almost touching your face, and look right at you as I gently lean in for pets. This is my way of letting you know I’m open to trust, and hoping you’ll just give me some love in return. Once we get to know each other, I might even give you a kiss!
I am perfectly sized at around 35-40lbs, but I am probably smaller than you’d expect from my description and pictures. My foster thinks I might be a red hound mixed with a corgi, and maybe even some sausage dog. I have a beautiful ginger coat, golden-orange eyes that match, floppy ears, and short legs for my torso (or a long torso for my legs)-kind of like a corgi with a hound body. Definitely compact through the mid and very sturdy… Yes-I am as cute as I sound, and even sweeter!
At night, I like to cuddle. I’ll come right to the head of the bed and lay on your pillows with you. I won’t go anywhere if you give me pets and don’t move around too much. If the bed gets too crowded, I’ll go to the floor and find a small space (like a crate or under the bed) to hide out until morning. I could easily be crate trained, and settle when I am in, but I am such a good girl that I get to roam free! I never have accidents, and prefer napping over snooping (unless there’s food in the dog bowls-in that case, I lick them clean). When I’m outside, I do have a prey drive and love to catch a new scent (this is why they’re thinking hound), but can easily be redirected and never resist going back inside. I’m great on leash and you honestly probably wouldn’t guess how scared of people I am if you saw me walking by on the street. I act very normal-even if there are loud sounds and changes in the environment (like snow). I still show interest in others dogs when they’re being walked by their humans. I even seem to be okay when people are walking in my general direction and around me. But if a person I don’t know tries to touch me or take my leash, that’s when I run to hide. Otherwise, I really don’t pull and know to trust the person holding the leash.
I’m not very energetic, but will sometimes play with my pittie foster sister. Nothing too rough, but I can definitely stand my ground! I’m surprisingly confident when I’m solo, but another dog in the home would help me feel more at home sooner than later. I’m currently taking medication for my anxiety-it helps with stressful situations like transitions and meeting new people. But once I find my forever home, I might be able to be weaned off because I get so much confidence from my caretakers. So once I know you’re not going anywhere, I might not need it! I’ll just count on you to let me know everything is ok.
If you are gentle, patient, and just looking for someone to love-you might be my soul mate! *With the cutest most demure puppy-eye stare…* Is that you?
