Story
Heidi is a sweet and gorgeous girl who is looking for the perfect home for her. She was found as a stray in the heat of summer, and although all efforts were made to locate her owner, none was found. We don't know much about her past, but she tends to be unsure of new people and is especially leery of men. She warms up quickly and once she is comfortable with you, Heidi is affectionate, playful, cuddly, and extremely loving. She is submissive and respectful with other dogs and would love to have a doggy sibling in her forever home. She shows zero food aggression or resource guarding. Heidi is excited by cats and will chase them if they run, but the moment they stand up to her she is the one running! Heidi is a sweet and gentle soul, but she does best meeting new people in their home or in a neutral location. She is fearful and protective when new people enter her home and would do best in a house that does not have a lot of new people coming in and out. She would likely benefit from confidence building exercises with her new owner. Heidi does great on a leash and does well on short trips in the car. She gets a bit car sick on longer trips. Heidi got to go camping in Flagstaff with her foster family and had the best time! She loved hiking in the woods, smelling new smells, and splashing in the lake. Although she doesn't seem to be a fan of swimming, she does like getting in on the first step of the swimming pool, playing in sprinklers, and splashing in a kiddie pool. Heidi has three school age children in her foster home and is great with them. We do not know how she would do with younger children. She sleeps in a kennel at night but loves to snuggle on the bed with you if you let her. She is mostly potty trained but will have occasional accidents if not let out regularly. Heidi is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to find her perfect forever home. Her adoption fee is $300 through Living the Dream Rescue.September 22, 2023, 8:22 pm
