My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

FOSTERED IN SIOUX CITY

Name- Mertle
Age- approx 5 years old
Breed- Corgi
What was your life like before NDCB/Where did you come from?
Who is your main caretaker/favorite person now? I’m attached to my foster mom but I show love to everyone.
Are you good with kids? What age ranges? I live kids now, my favorites are the older kids. The 4 yr old has a little too much energy for me at times.
Are you good with other dogs? I get along with my foster sister but my perfect companion would be have a laid back personality.
Are you good with cats? I am interested in what a cat is but I get scared around them. With more time spent around them I could warm up. I have two in my foster home.
Are you housebroken? I had a couple of accidents in my foster home the first couple of days but after getting into routine of going outside I’ve done good! What is your current potty routine? Outside in the morning, afternoon, evening and before bed.
Do you like car rides? Have been on two car rides with foster mom and I was nervous both times. With more exposure and positive experience she could warm up.
Do you like walks? Have not tried walking her due to weather. How are you on a leash? She has been doing great on the yard leash!
Do you like toys? Yes but takes awhile to warm up to them. What is your favorite toy? Grinch face (Stuffed and crinkles)
Do you know any commands/tricks? Not that she’s shown.
How are your house manners? She has not chewed on anything in the house, not even her dog bed.
Describe your personality- I’m still warming up to my foster house so it takes me a little bit to calm down once I get out of the kennel but once I get done prancing I will lay down and chew on my toy or take a nap. I like to cuddle and I will give kisses, but I don’t over due it. I spend the day in my kennel but my foster mom does come to let me out on her lunch break.
Describe your perfect home- my perfect home would be a calm environment with a family that has time to dedicate to my adoption into the family. I love to be around my foster people but the cats do make me nervous so a home without cats would be ideal. My kennel has become my safe place and I haven’t had an accident in it yet! At night I sleep in the kennel but with the door open.

Go meet their pets

All of our pets reside in private foster homes so meet and greets are scheduled in public locations. We often hold adoption events at our grooming salon in Sioux City. All dogs have their Foster location listed as the first sentence in their bio so please make sure you check that. We do adopt out of state, but we do require that you either come pick up your pet or set up transport on your own. We can accommodate FaceTimes
