Story
If you would like to apply to take SUNDAE home, click the link next to their picture, or Visit our website at Www.godogsgorescue.org and fill out an application! We look forward to hearing from you. Sundae is a beautiful middle-aged lady. You would never guess her age as she exhibits playfulness and excitement when exposed to the simplest things. Her gray and white coloring is lovely and her eyes are quite expressive and very enchanting. She is a strong girl who would fit with someone dedicated to using a harness on her and someone able to handle a little “tank.” Sundae is very sturdy and very smart! She has learned how to open some doors between rooms and is willing to explore everything. For her safety, crating her when you are not around would be best for everyone ---- for owners who do not want things stolen in the house and for her, as she believes everything is something for her! To say she makes us laugh every day is an understatement. This is one funny girl. Her eyes melt our hearts; thus, she does get away with some “stuff.” After her beginnings, it is difficult not to engage her. Her zoomies are powerful and she must let off that steam occasionally although it does not last long. Even outside, she plays a bit and then prefers to be in the house. That is probably because it gives her a sense of security. We believe that Sundae would be best as an only dog. While she gets along with her foster roommate, she is possessive of her food and her toys while in the company of another dog. She is fine with people in the same circumstances. She is crate trained and really a quiet girl. In her time being fostered we have her bark only twice. She will produce happy, happy grunts when she sees you --- so happy to see her “person”. If you are looking for a companion that will entertain you, who deserves all the affection in the world, Sundae is your girl.
