Cookie is the sweetest, gentlest dog there is around! She’s great with kids and belongs in a family environment or with a dedicated owner who can give her the kindness and attention she deserves. She loves to snuggle and is playful but not aggressive. She needs space to run around outside but she also considers herself a bit of a lap dog. She is extremely sweet and will be turning 3 in July.
