Story
Plume is living in a foster home. Fill out our quick adoption application on our website to learn more about her and schedule a meet and greet with the foster.
Plume is:
Spayed: Yes!
Up to date on vaccines: Yes!
Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized
More about Plume:
Housebroken: Yes
Crate trained: She has done best with free roam when home alone for up to 6 hours, after taking a short time to settle initially. She will need to keep working on this as she transitions to her new home.
Leash walking: She can be very alert on leash, and can pull toward and bark at other dogs she sees on walks. She would benefit from continuing to work on loose leash walking with positive reinforcement, and would do best in a quieter neighborhood.
Dog social: She has been selective with her dog pals and may be comfortable with some but not all. She has shown resource guarding behaviors with other dogs, and may do best as the only dog in her future home.
Cat social: Unknown, but she has shown prey drive toward small critters on walks
Kid friendly: Likely not a match, as she has shown resource guarding behaviors with people and can be excitable when greeting people.
Plume likes:
- Requesting belly rubs by rolling over, and nuzzling into you when you rub her neck/scruff
- Using her brain to solve puzzles!
- Bringing you a toy when she wants to play
Plume is a stunning gal who is alert, intelligent, and will do well with someone who takes an active part in advanced training and exercise. Plume knows basic commands of sit, down, give paw, and she comes when called. She likes learning new things. Plume is sweet and loving with all people, but is selective with her dog friends and would need supervised introduction. She loves her walks, playing ball in the yard, tearing boxes, looking at the window, solving puzzles, and learning new things. She is waiting for her forever home, where with love, exercise, and training she can come into her own and be her best self and your best dog!
Plume has been taking medication for anxiety support. She is heartworm positive and on activity restriction. She has been undergoing treatment at Ellis Clinic at no charge to the adopter. Heartworm is a treatable disease that most dogs make a full recovery from. You can learn more about heartworm treatment on our resource page - https://www.onetail.org/heartworm/
Plume's adoption fee has been sponsored by a generous supporter, and she is ready to get all the belly rubs in her forever home!
