My name is Amber!

Hello, my name is Amber! I am a gentle, shy little dog who is still learning to feel safe. I take time to warm up to new people and I prefer calm routines, quiet spaces, and slow introductions. Once I feel comfortable, my sweetness starts to shine and youll see how much joy I have tucked away.<br/><br/>I like other small dogs and feel my best when I have a playful buddy. I love to run, chase, and play in the yard, and I stay polite and calm when meeting dogs on leash or through a fence. I enjoy soft toys, cozy beds, and peaceful walks, as long as nothing is too loud or sudden.<br/><br/>Even though I may never be a cuddly lap dog, I do accept gentle pets on my own terms, and I show my happiness by running like a little gazelle with my tail curled over my back. My foster says I have the cutest underbite and the kindest heart. I even love to ride in the car, Ill lay on your lap or cruise right next to you.<br/><br/>There are so many positives about me, too. I am fully potty trained and non-destructive, and Im trusted with access to the whole house. I sleep quietly through the night in my own bed on the floor. Im very quiet overall, with just a bit of light alert barking when my foster gets home, and even that doesnt always happen. I walk easily on leash, make a great work-from-home buddy, and have shown no signs of separation anxiety or resource guarding. Even when Im scared, I never try to defend myself-Im truly as sweet as can be.<br/><br/>My perfect home is adults only with at least one playful small or medium dog who can help me feel confident. With patience time and kindness I know I will keep growing and become a loving companion for someone who understands a sensitive soul like me.<br/><br/>With love,<br/>Amber
