Story
Hi, I`m Demi!I`m currently living in a foster home and my parents say I bring a lot of joy into their home. I`ve quickly proved myself to be a delightful addition to their family!I love going out in the backyard and pressing my zoomie button until I`m all worn out. Then, I like to zoom straight over to my foster parents, roll over on my back, and get belly rubs. If I think I`m not getting enough attention, I`ll whine like a Wookie from Star Wars.My favorite things are staring lovingly into your eyes, snuggling as close to you as possible, and laying on the bed. There`s nothing I enjoy more than curling up with people for some quality bonding time. I`m kind of an expert at turning even the gloomiest day into a warm and fuzzy one with my affectionate cuddles. During the day, I love staring out the window to see what`s going on outside and soak up the sun. I love to play with toys and will never say no to a treat! Treats hold a special place in my heart. I will also never forget to remind you when it`s time for dinner!I`m fully potty trained and crate trained, and I`ve been working SO hard on my manners. I`m dedication to being a well-behaved member of the household and determined to make you proud! Especially when I walk on my leash... I`m just trying to remember how strong I am when we go for walks together! I`m actively taking classes with Barking Hound Village and I`m learning a lot! I`d love to continue learning after I`ve found my forever home. Make sure you have a lot of treats - I`m very food motivated.Just so you know, though, I do need to be the only pet in a home with no children under the age of 12. That way, I don`t have to share the love with anyone else!I can`t wait to meet you soon!Love,DemiP.S. I also qualify for Welcome Trial, which means you can take me home for up to 14 days to make sure I`m the perfect fit before making things official.

Story
I adopted Pumpkin from the shelter a couple of years ago. They guessed she was about 3 then so I assume she’s about 5 now. She is a sweet, sleepy, cuddly medium energy girl. She loves to be snuggled up near someone but can also run full sprint outside in a big field if you let her. She’s house trained, and is somewhat crate trained. She has a bit of separation anxiety and my work schedule doesn’t allow me to spend much time with her. I hope her next home has somewhere she can exert her energy, somewhere with a yard as I live in a small apartment now. Maybe someone who works from home or can give her more time than I can. She doesn’t chew clothes or furniture and is overall a great dog.
