UPDATE: CLAIMED FOR ADOPTION!
Betsy’s previous owner has provided me with an adoption profile for her! I’ve also received several photos and short video clips of Betsy (and her beagle/dachshund sister, Ruby). I hope this helps her next forever family get to know her a little better.
*Video clips are in the comments.*
**NOTE: Ruby is also available for adoption and can be adopted along with Betsy if desired.**
Betsy Ross is a young, happy-go-lucky corgi who loves to lie on the feet of her human. Being warm natured, she’s not much of one to snuggle with her humans, but for the first year of her life, she was inseparable from her doxle (beagle/dachshund) sister, Ruby. The two of them knew no boundaries from each other. They were one cuddle puddle at all times. Their times spent in the backyard running and exploring were the only exceptions.
Betsy enjoys a good run in the yard, but quickly misses being inside with her humans so she returns to the back door, perching herself there to be happily in both worlds.
Being an energetic puppy, Betsy still tends to jump up on people. She is intelligent and craves engagement so this makes her very trainable. I expect this jumping trait to be one she outgrows easily, especially with some targeted training. She’s most prone to jumping when she’s excited—when her human returns from being away and when people come into the home, as she never meets a stranger.
Although Betsy has never had a moment of abusive behavior, she has a bit of a skittish personality and is easily startled.
Betsy loves to play with a water hose and frequently waits in the shower for it to be turned on.
She knows the words “gentle,” “up,” “down,” “in,” “outside,” and other basic commands, but she knows them mostly as habitual responses. She likes her routines very much. She’s a great communicator really, using body language to express herself. No leash training has been done with Betsy, but once she’s mastered this, she will be a fabulous companion.
Her mind is often going 90 miles per hour, so training sessions will be more effective if she’s separated from distractions.
Betsy has been an absolute joy of a pup these past 12 months. Whoever will care for her for the remainder of her life will be very blessed to have such a devoted sweetheart as their companion.
