I am just a happy and very smart gurl. I LOVE to play tug of war or chase with my foster sisters! I can get a little rambunctious but if my Foster Mom says "Hey" or "Settle down" I will. But sometimes she has to tell me a few times because I forget that I'm free from the loud crazy jail she calls shelter! If my foster sisters don't want to play, then I can entertain myself with my binky toys as you can see in the video.
I was a little confused at first because I would take my foster Mom's nice smelly shoes and socks and put them in my crate with me. But once one of my foster sisters showed me that the Binky Box with all those awesome toys is the only place I should get things; I quickly learned that shoes and socks were not for me. My favorite spot by the front window is where I usually hang out and play with all those cool binkies. Most of the binky toys do require surgery after me and my foster sisters are done playing tug of war. Foster Mom has decided not to perform anymore surgeries though because that's all she was doing. She invested in some tougher toys for us gurlz to play tug of war. Sheesh - we're working dogs so we play hard!
At the same time, I also like to go into my crate or dog bed next to the front window because I want to chill and take a few catnaps during the day. It's not all play and shenanigans around here even though foster mom says I act like a pup but have an "old soul". When it's time for Nite Nite, I follow my foster sisters and go lay in my bed next to my foster Mom's bed and sleep all night. FM says I snore. Don't believe it!
Oh! and I love food! But I am much more polite than my 2 foster sisters because I always sit and wait patiently until my foster Mom puts my bowl down and says "Ok". I did have some tummy issues for a while until we figured out I needed to be on an easy-on-the-tummy dog food. At first I was on a prescription food, but once things got better, I don't need prescription anymore. PLUS I'm allowed treats which I love but am very gentle when FM hands it to me.
I was pretty skinny at the shelter and you could see my ribs. With the food service here, I'm slowly gaining weight and now you can't see my ribs anymore. I'm glad I don't have to worry about being hungry or thirsty now. Also, I did get a bath which I did not like at all, but now my coat is healthy and shiny and soft now. And even though I wasn't exactly thrilled, I did let foster Mom cut my nails without much fuss.
I'm also a great watch dog and bark "stranger danger" when I see someone walking by outside with their dog. And I like to chase the squirrels but foster Mom tells me no - so I stop chasing them. Sigh...... Sometimes she just won't let me have fun!
As with all foster dogs, I’m potty and house trained with the help of Foster Mom. I love being in my Foster Home but can't wait for my furever home where I can snuggle with you and play in my own back yard! Foster Mom says I have 2 speeds - chill which I do a lot and then get the zoomies and race around the yard with my foster sisters or a binky or 2.
