Good with Dogs? Maybe
With slow, proper introductions, I can be good with other dogs.
Good with Cats? Unknown
Not tested with cats in the house. On walks, I want to chase any cat I see.
Good with Kids? Unknown
I am very gentle and considerate and I love pets and cuddles, but my excited wiggle butt could knock small children over. So, maybe best with older children.

Hi there, my name is Cynder. My puppies are all grown up and have left the nest, so now it is time for me to find my furever home. I am a sweet, gentle and loving dog. I love to cuddle and get belly rubs and I will make sure to tell you I want some lovin’. I am working on improving my pushiness for constant love and attention and I will now lay down and settle when it is not time for you to show me love. 😊 I love to say hi to everyone and will greet you with a wiggly butt. I am happy to go for a walk, or chill out in the house or hang out in the sunshine with you. I am good walking on leash and I don’t pull, (except if there is a cat or a rabbit or doing my poop walk 😊) If you are looking for a big lap dog and have room in your heart and home for a girl like me, please put in an application for me. I can hardly wait to meet you!
About my Behaviour:
I am house trained and will tell you I need to go to the bathroom by laying down by the door or in the hallway by the entrance. I am partially crate trained. I do very well in my crate at night and will settle till morning. During the day, it sometimes takes me 10-15 mins to settle. I currently get all my meals in my crate, to help me create a positive association with my crate. So far, I have only interacted with my foster brother. It took me about 5 days before I wanted anything to do with him. I am feeling more comfortable now and love to run around, play, chew on the same bones (at the same time) and get up to shenanigans all day long. On walks, I still want to avoid all other dogs. I am getting more confident and with time, I may be able to with slow introductions, have some doggy friends. I have shown some reactivity to the neighbouring dogs, through the fence. I am learning with positive reinforcement and I am already improving and learning to ignore them.
It would be fun to do a class together. It will help me grow in confidence and help us build a bond together. Please check out www.albertaforcefreealliance.com for some great force free trainers!
How’s my Health?
I will be spayed, microchipped, dewormed and up to date on my vaccines when I am adopted. I came in with a face full of porcupine quills. They were in there for a while, so over time, some may still migrate out.
