Story
contact foster parent at nomagicpill+foster@protonmail.comBreakfast and dinner are the best things ever. Want my attention or need me to do something? That rattling box of dog cookies isn’t going to eat itself! Let’s just say I’m treat-motivated. I also like a rubber Kong, a Nylabone ring, or a good ol’ filled bone. I’ve also been known to play a friendly game of tug-of-war with a rope toy, but I leave furniture, shoes, and other human things alone.I`m still learning how to greet and be around other animals, so it`s probably best that I`m the only one in your life, mainly so I can have all the toys. Humans of all sizes are a-okay, though! If I do meet another doggo, it should be very slow and with a lot of distance between us to start..I am a champion car-rider. I read the room and match its energy. I tolerate a crate, but I still get a little nervous when my human leaves (those chew toys do help). Bottom line: I won’t takeup much room except in your heart–it’s all mine!

More relaxed now and has even showed me her belly! •Lets me wipe her paws when she comes insideAdaptable medium energy - will run around in the yard and play with toys, but easily chills out insideCutest pittie girl strutInteraction with resident dogs: has only sniffed them thru the gate so far - sometimes relaxed and sometimes stuff bodied, but no growls or barks unless there’s foodJumpy when excited - working on it •Very excitable when going outside Not tested with kids, cats, or men Does well on leash! Doesn’t pull too badly with harness on Commands: getting really good with “sit” and “easy” (when taking treats)
