~~~~~~~~~ ON HOLD ~~~~~~~~~~~
Whoo-weee, what a ride my life has been so far!
Hey, I'm Petra, a southern gal 1-ish y.o. female mix. I came from Kentucky, found as a stray, held for 6 months before I got a freedom ride to Chicago where I was fostered temporarily until I could get into L.E.A.R.N. I was a baby when I was found and have grown into a robust, energetic gal ready to run and play.
I was so thrilled to be in a home with a fenced area that I was just doing all sorts of zoomies and played with one of my new fur-sibs. Once I got inside I had so many toys to pick from a bin, plus my temp fur-Mom sent all sorts of things with me, I just couldn't pick which toy so I circled around to lots of them for hours. Traveling to new places and getting to meet new people and fur-buds is so exciting!
After a night in my new digs, my calmer side surfaced where I self-entertain. My temp-Mom started me on some basic manners and so far have shown myself to be independent, but cuddly, and don't get underfoot in the kitchen. My foster-Mom thinks I would work out great for any runners out there, but I do understand energetic boundaries when inside.
I keep telling the oldest fur-sib that she is the Queen, but she isn't putting up with my whipper-snapper shenanigans. Don't worry, I'll win her over yet. My other fur-sib is very low-key and she will play with me for a bit, but I get rambunctious and she tells me to stop, and I'll ask her to play some more, she says no, so I go entertain myself. Live and learn.
I went hiking yesterday and there were all sorts of smells! It was wonderful! Then I was taken to an enclosed park so I could just be off-leash and RUN, but I actually stuck pretty close to FM (foster Mom) for the first lap, then I opened up a little. I came zooming right back to her when she called - she was impressed - of course, it didn't hurt we were the only ones out there. It was freezing out, but that didn't faze me any, I love to play in the snow.
Stay tuned for updates on my progress…
