Strawberry Jam is a beautiful, smart girl who is slowly but surely learning to trust and getting a little braver every day. She is a medium energy gal who loves a good romp in the yard, playing chase with her friends, and a scenic hike. She is looking for a patient person willing to give her the time and space she needs to come out of her shell.

Strawberry is great with other dogs and enjoys playing with her fur buddies in her foster home, approaching new dogs with a gentle, non-confrontational energy. She gains confidence from other dogs and would thrive in a home with doggy siblings or a family with lots of doggy friends. She has not been around cats, but her timid and submissive nature suggests she would likely do well with a feline sibling. She has met a few children and tends to be shy with new people at first, so she would do best with dog savvy children who will give her space. Once she warms up to new people she's the sweetest girl.

Strawberry is a bright girl who loves chew toys, bones, and chewy treats. She is fully crate trained and will even crate herself willingly. She is fully house trained, going to the door and waiting to be let out after her crate time. She walks on leash and enjoys pack walks with other dogs. Strawberry looks to her family for guidance and reassurance in new situations. She is looking for a patient and loving home to help her to continue to blossom and see that the world is a little less scary.

This sweet, quirky girl has come so far already and just needs the right person to help her keep blooming. Could you be that person for Strawberry Jam?
