Critter Twitter:
Did I mention that I LOVE food? Because I totally do. Food is such a great motivator and I am eager to please. I am a bit shy so please be gentle with me. #eatallday #gentlesoul
About my Behaviour:
I am shy and submissive but gaining confidence every day. I am calm and careful, but as I am getting to know my foster family I am becoming more and more playful. I am learning to play tug-of-war and fetch. I rarely bark, don't jump up on furniture or people, and I am generally happy just hanging out with my humans. I don't always seek out attention, but if you come over to me I will gladly roll on my back for a good belly scratch.
I have done well with some basic training (sit, down, and come with kibble as my main motivator at this point). I am fine being left alone in the house (in a somewhat confined area). So far, I haven't chewed or gotten into anything that I shouldn't. I am very sweet and I absolutely LOVE food. I eat very fast so I do well with a Kong with frozen kibble in it. I enjoy the challenge of getting the frozen food out!
I do have some anxiety so I need gentle care and plenty of patience. I am sometimes nervous when entering or exiting the house. I am still getting used to walking on a leash, but I am getting better and I know I will love going for walks when I am more comfortable in my urban life.
How’s my Health?
I have been spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.
