Animal Information: Mandy is an estimated Chi mix currently weighing approximately 12 lbs.
Foster Profile: Meet Mandi. She arrived a couple of weeks ago, then we were out of town for a short bit, but she's back with us now. She's a funny kid! She's still warming up to our resident dog, Hazel, but has made significant improvements. She might do best as an only dog, or, at the very least, very slow intros with other dogs. She didn't know how to walk on a leash when she first arrived, but we've also seen improvements in this area. Yesterday we did about a 20-minute walk around the neighborhood (without breaking or falling around!). She can be a bit reactive towards other dogs she sees, but again, we're seeing improvements. Out on walks, she's not super reactive, but in a confined space, she can be. She is still pretty nervous, but loves pets and attention when received. We're working on overall confidence on items like stairs, hardwood floors, and hanging out with her people. Does GREAT in her crate and going potty outside. Since we've already seen improvements in this short time, I'm excited to continue seeing her grow and come out of her shell.
