My story

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

Location: Seattle, WA (needs adopter within 2-3 hours of Seattle)
DOB: 1/25/2024 (estimate)

Meet Gertie! This HIGHLY affectionate, high-energy girl wakes up ready to live her best life — especially after a good night’s sleep or a cozy afternoon nap. She thrives on companionship and loves being close to her people (leaning against you is her signature move). And she is an EXPERT cuddler! Once properly introduced, she’s friendly and warm, and she forms strong, devoted bonds with her family.

She’s smart, eager to learn, and very food-motivated, which makes training fun and rewarding. With calm, confident leadership and consistency, she truly shines. Expect a loyal shadow who follows you from room to room and happily curls up for snuggles when playtime is over.

• Potty trained
• Gentle treat taker with excellent soft-mouth control
• Comfortable with grooming and vet handling
• Playful zoomie champion with adorable bursts of energy
• Loves toys (rubber and plush) and will enthusiastically chase tennis or soccer balls
• Surprisingly into massage gun spa sessions
• Leash skills are improving — she’ll benefit from continued practice
• Does best with structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement
• Cats & kids unknown.

Her ideal home has a good-sized yard with space to run, a canine companion to hang out with, and a family ready for an affectionate, food-motivated companion.
