Story
Meet Ash!
Age: senior
Weight: about 65 pounds (I am losing weight and should be about 55 pounds)
Housetrained: yes
Crate trained: unknown (Foster mom says I'd probably like one because I like to lay under the table, but I don't need one.)
Good with: Dogs, cats (I haven't been around kids, but I would do well with more calm, cool, collected, respectful kiddos)
Special needs: I have a bit of arthritis in my hind legs, so I would do best in a home without a full flight of stairs.
I'm the most loving old lady you'll ever meet! Foster mom says Ash is short for "A SHadow' because I like to be near my humans. I'll take a nap by your feet, or follow you to the bathroom (that's what dogs are best at, right?), and I'll happily go for slow strolls around the neighborhood with you! I'll let you know, I'm a "stop and smell the roses" type of gal. But, if you want to go for longer walks, I'll still happily go with you if you push me in a dog stroller! I like to have dog friends around. Though I don't really engage in rough play with them, I'd probably do gentle play and thoroughly enjoy my time doing it. I do get a few zoomies once in a while, and I get so excited to see my humans when they come home from work! Since my legs are a little weak, I'd appreciate some carpets or rugs around my new home. If you are looking for a new best friend, who will keep you giggling from her sometimes silly ways, and will give you all the love she has in her being, then I'm the one for you!
*Ash is being fostered in Madison, WI.
