Story
Juliette is a wonderful little girl. Much like her bonded buddy, Romeo, she takes a little time to warm up, but once you get her out of her shell she's a great little dog. Juliette is a gentle soul and would love an owner who shares that same energy. She is a creature of comfort, cuddles, and kindness. In this big world, a lot can feel scary to this tiny little girl. Once she warms up she just wants to snuggle with you and be your best friend. She really needs a gentle hand and positive reinforcement as she's a little nervous and sometimes gets scared and will retreat to a safe corner until she feels better. Before you know it, you will be her safe person and she will retreat to you anytime she feels out of her comfort zone.
She takes a little while to warm up but don't let that deter you! She's an absolute snuggle bug. If you work from home or want a little friend who will always be by your side, she is absolutely your gal.
Juliette is fairly potty trained but with new environments and people, sometimes her fear is bigger than her commitment to make it outside. Once she warms up and learns her new space, she is happy to go outside and do her business. With some routine, comfort in her space, and positive reinforcement, she will be a well-behaved, wonderful addition to your family.
With other dogs, Juliette is a little slower to warm up. She tends to be a little more nervous than her best friend, Romeo, and sometimes that translates to some growling and nipping to dogs she doesn't know. With controlled introductions, she will warm up! Within one week of meeting her foster siblings, she actually started playing! Occasionally she will guard her favorite person or food. With some training, she is already improving here.
Her and her bonded pair Romeo play constantly and are the best of friends.
Juliette got to meet two rabbits who were bigger than her and she showed no aggression, she mostly didn't know what these strange tall-eared dogs were and kept her distance.
We feel that Juliette would likely be okay with cats and children but those with kids will need to give her plenty of time and space to adjust, and keep in mind the wait is worth it! She just needs time as her introduction to this world has been a little scary for her.
Both of these dogs are wonderful and would make a fantastic addition to your home.
*Just like her buddy Romeo, I wouldn't say Juliette is BAD with new people but she is very fearful to start with and this often translates to some barking or growling, but usually it's just running and hiding. She is truly all bark and no bite. With a few hours, some treats, and building trust she will come out of her shell more! Just give her time. Be gentle with her and yourself!
