๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ / ๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐:
๐๐๐ฆ๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ: Sweet, playful, smart pup! She's a dog that loves pets and snuggles with humans. Doesn't always want to be right on your lap, but does like laying on the couch beside or near you. Loves running laps around other dogs, we call her the mini rocket as she is very quick! She is the queen of the house and knows it. lol
๐๐จ๐ญ๐ญ๐ฒ ๐ญ๐ซ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐: Yes- fully! She had one accident in the house due to us not knowing her cues and reading her correctly, this was literally within 48 hours of her arrival.
๐๐๐ซ๐ค๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ญ๐๐ง๐๐๐ง๐๐ข๐๐ฌ: None
๐๐๐ง๐ง๐๐ฅ ๐ญ๐ซ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐: Yes- Can be left for several hours without any issues. She does pant when left kenneled while people are present in the room with her. Settles nicely when no humans are there. She isn't whining to get out, but pants in a sort of nervous excitement to get to you. We kennel overnight and any time we can not supervise dogs in our home, so she is used to this routine.
๐๐๐๐ฌ๐ก ๐ญ๐ซ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐: Yes, she does pretty well, we are working on looser leash protocols, but she does well just likes to be on the furthest reach of the leash end, easily corrects or redirects when asked.
๐๐ซ๐๐ข๐ง๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฆ๐จ๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง: Treats, play, pets and excitement, she really works to please and enjoys mental stimulation of being engaged. Anything as a reward she responds well to. High value treats like cheese and freeze dried chicken are her fav!
๐๐จ๐ ๐ซ๐๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐: I would say yes, with an easy correction. She mostly bark alerts to other dogs and if in small spaces she will growl or snap towards other dogs in her space. On walks she's alert to other dogs present, but can be redirected. In a home or salon setting she can be somewhat guarded. She does however play well with dogs that she gets used to. When watching pups in our home the first day is tense and requires diligent supervision, but literally within 48 hours she settles in nicely and doesn't target dogs. Can get possessive of a chuck it ball when all dogs are chasing after it. But otherwise, does ok once settled.
๐๐๐ญ ๐ซ๐๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐: No, she has been raised in a multi cat home.
๐๐๐ฌ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐๐ ๐ ๐ฎ๐๐ซ๐๐ข๐ง๐ : Does like to get to the ball first then play keep away with other dogs. If they come too close to her she does bark or lunges towards them. We choose not to play chasing ball games with her.
๐๐ก๐ข๐ฅ๐/๐๐ข๐ ๐๐ ๐ ๐ซ๐๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฏ๐: No, she adores children. She relishes snuggles with our 11 yr old and plays well with the 7yr old, younger kids 0-6 have also visited and she was very good with all ages. Seems intuitive towards little ones.
๐๐๐ง๐๐๐ซ/๐๐๐ฑ ๐ซ๐๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐: No, she loves all the humans! lol
๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐ ๐ซ๐๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐: No, she doesn't even mind the vacuum.
๐๐ซ๐๐ง๐ฌ๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ: A dream for travel, loads and unloads on her own on the "load up" command. Settles nicely, have not done a longer road trip with her but would guess she'd do fine.
๐๐ก๐๐ฐ ๐ญ๐๐ง๐๐๐ง๐๐ข๐๐ฌ: While being fostered we have noted that if left unattended and items are left out, she will investigate them and can chew. She is far more likely to sniff out uncovered trashcans, food items then chew items up. She leaves clothing or kids toys alone when given the opportunity to lay by you or a dog appropriate chew toy or chew treat. I would say an age appropriate level of interest in chewing, not an abnormal amount for a dog in general. I would say a normal amount of young dog whos really nearly out of the chew phase completely, and would just need to know the house rules. ;) She loves mild softer chew items like jerky or beef sticks, not a huge bone fan.
๐๐๐จ๐ฉ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐ฉ๐ซ๐๐๐๐ซ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ:
๐ She could easily be a solo pup or with a couple other dogs, after transitioning time. Easily fine with cats.
๐ธIdeally an adopter who will have an active presence in her life. As it would not be her preference to be in a kennel, and would prefer to be sleeping with you and not in a kennel. lol
๐ Fenced in yard would be great but not a requirement, she does have a strong recall and enjoys being close by.
Would love if this girl could stay local to Ames IA, as we would love to have occasional play dates and keep up to date with her.
๐๐ง๐ญ๐๐ซ๐๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐:
She will have a small rehoming fee to help cover expenses and to ensure a good home is found. If interested please fill out an application and/or message me for more questions!
