I am a bit of a shy little girl looking for a calm home with calm people and calm activity level. In case you couldn't tell, I like it calm.
That is not to say I don't love a good wrestle session every now and then. But I can startle easily and prefer cuddle time over play time. In fact, I would love to be what they call a Velcro dog, a dog that spends most of my time snuggling with my favorite human. For those worried about me being startled, I do not snap or bite when startled. I try to make myself small and hide when I get nervous about something. I would do well in a home with an older, calm small dog to help me be more comfortable. I am less likely to be happy in a home with small children who can be fast and loud.
I am a good eater, and I freely feed from my dish without overeating. I do well with food and treat removal. In fact, I am not super treat motivated. If offered a treat I will sniff, maybe give it a lick, and eat it if it tastes good. If it doesn't taste good, I will walk away. When I need to be motivated, I absolutely prefer affection to treats.
Because I am so young, I am just starting to work on my potty training. I do mostly well with potty pads in my kennel area. I miss the edge of the pad every once in a while, but do prefer to keep my sleep/eat/play areas clean. I separate my waste from my other spaces. I am told this is an excellent first step to being an expert at potty training.
I am just starting out in life and am looking for a calm person to be my best friend and to teach me all the ways that life can be exciting without being scary.
Just starting to work on potty training, will need work in this area. Not good with rapid movement and loud noises.
