DESCRIPTION
What my friends at OHS say about me:
I really enjoy the company of my human friends.
I know some basic cues, such as sit. Anything for a treat!
I can't wait to show my new family how playful I am!
Anxious: I can be worried about being left alone. I am not really an apartment dweller. I would do best in a house with a fenced in yard and someone to hang out with most of the time!
Escape Artist: I have a history of escaping doors or fences. I will need supervision when outdoors or we can go on adventures together - on leash of course!
Resource Guarding: I have a history of guarding my people, food, toys and/or bedding from other animals or people.
Do you like sweet things? Then I am the perfect companion for you!
