– The sweetest Good Girl who likes cuddling with anyone – human or animal

– Can be very timid at first and takes a while to warm up to new people, but once she’s comfortable with you she won’t leave your side and will follow you everywhere

– Loves giving kisses

– Likes walks but is known for not walking in a straight line and may walk right in front of you, so she may do best with people who are steady on their feet

– Has been about 90% potty trained in her foster home and will need some help from her new family to get all the way there; her foster family said she needs to potty every few hours during the day but has been holding it overnight

– Likes playing with toys and chasing squirrels in the yard

– Has done very well with the dogs and cats in her foster home and loves cuddling with them

– Had double knee surgery here at the ARL and has recovered well (more info at ARL)

The ARL’s shelter software requires that we choose a primary breed for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most dogs we are only guessing at primary breed. We get to know each dog as an individual and do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not breed label.
