Biography
Oh dear me!!! Where is my “forever” home??? I have been promised but haven’t got one yet.
I guess one reason is I am frightened of little kids who are loud and grab at me, which I feel the need to snap and defend myself since no one else seemed to. So, PLEASE …. no home with kids like that or small children. I know that makes me look like a bad dog but I really am a very sweet girl once I can trust you. Foster Mom said it took about a week for me to really find out I could go to her, Foster Dad and their 10 yr old granddaughter without fearing them. I found they were very good to me.
There are 11 other dogs at her house, kinda intimidating so I hope you don’t have THAT many…ONE would be good!!! I have always been the ONLY dog before. I am not a dominant dog except for my food….I like to protect my food, habit from earlier days, I guess.
I love to shake my fuzzy toys, run in the yard except when the grass is wet. I don’t like to potty in the yard when the grass is wet so Foster Mom carries me out a ways and then lets me down on the wet grass…well, already got my feet wet so I might as well potty. I have pottied in the house a few times but foster mom thinks it is because the other dogs run out the doggy door and “blow off steam” which scares me. She is sure I would do better if it was a little more quiet here. Before, I was housetrained with without any problems.
So far I sleep in my bed with my blanket …Foster Mom wants me to sleep with her and a bunch of dogs…I would like to be the only one to sleep with her. I was outvoted on that one.
So…do you think I could be your FOREVER dog? I will need a little time to make up with you as I have had 3 places already. Now that I have told you about me…can I know about you??? I know I have melted your heart…so hurry!
