Story
Hi there everyone, my name is Feather! I am a “lean, not so mean, loving machine”, or at least that is what my foster humans tell me. They also tell me my name is feather because I am so light-hearted, it has nothing to do with my size obviously ☺. I have these cute short legs, and a head like a bowling ball, and I weigh a muscular eighty-five pounds. My tail never stops wagging as I follow you around, waiting for you to give me something to chew on, or to stop what you’re doing and give me some love. Sometimes you may find me napping in the sun or cuddling with one of the little humans or resident dogs (hopefully in the sun). I love chewing on toys, bones, and balls. So, I hope you don’t mind cleaning up after me because shredding toys is my favorite thing to do. I am kennel/crate trained and will go there on command, but I usually want a treat for doing this. I stay in there when my humans are gone and sleep through the night with no problems. I have only had a couple of accidents since I have been here, but to be fair it turns out I have a weak bladder and I must take a pill a couple of times a day to help me hold it. Otherwise, I am house trained. I also get along well with other dogs so long as we have a proper introduction, and they are not too much in my face/personnel space or have issues with having dominant dogs around them. I have a K-9 foster brother and sister (they are boxers) here at the house and we do pretty well around each other. We don’t play much but we respect each other’s space and enjoy each other’s company. That being said, I can share toys as long as the other does not want to mine or fight about it. I also have two fun younger humans that are very loving on me and are not loud and crazy. I love to run around in the yard and be silly, so a fenced yard would be best, but don't worry, I LOVE walks too. Though, I do prefer the company of my humans when I’m out in the yard. I’ve learned to just lie down and soak up the sunshine on the patio or chew on my toys. Myself and both the resident pups have started to play and goof around a bit more now, but nothing too crazy. Car rides are always a bonus, and they tell me that I ride well. I will probably just lay down on one of the seats or the floor unless snuggles are an option, then I choose that. I get excited when my humans go to the door or get out the leashes. Walks are the best thing in the world (in case you didn’t know), although I am still learning to walk without pulling. My foster human says I am getting better, but I think it is because they started using a gentle leader. He also says that when we are walking, I am a good teacher of patience and deep breaths (especially if there are squirrels and rabbits around). The things I need most are, lots of chew toys (duh), a dominant master(s) who will be willing to set boundaries to help direct me to be the best that I can be, and if there are kids and or dogs the kids should not be hyper, and the dogs must be able to respect me being the one who chooses which bones/toys are mine and yours. The last thing I want to tell you about myself is that I have been trained in both Spanish and English, how cool is that? Now that I have told you about me it is up to you to decide if you are the confident, strong, patient, and loving family that I need in my life.--------------------------------------------All our Warrior Dogs will have all age appropriate medical care and vaccines, a microchip, and spay/neuter before adoption unless age is a factor with a puppy younger than 6-12 months at the time of adoption.
