Meet the sweetest little “Wiggle Butt”
This smart, loyal girl is looking for her forever home! She’s house trained, crate trained, and has a great balance of energy and chill. When you come home, she gets so excited she wiggles her whole butt — it’s impossible not to smile! After her happy welcome, she’s just as content relaxing beside you on the couch or laying out in the yard enjoying the sunshine.

She loves being outside, running, playing, and would happily spend all day chasing squirrels and rabbits if given the chance! Toys, chew bones, and treats are some of her favorite things.

She already knows “sit” and “down,” is very smart, and learns quickly. She’s currently working on “shake,” leash manners, and not jumping when she gets excited. She has done wonderfully in the house and has only chewed on things she’s supposed to.

She can be a little slow to warm up at first, but once she trusts you, she is incredibly attentive and devoted to her person.

Other pets/kids:
• Dogs — may do best with a slow introduction
• Cats — does fine if they stay calm, but may chase if they run
• Kids — met the neighbors’ children once and did well, wagging her tail while keeping a respectful distance

A few more things about her:
• Rarely barks
• Loves treats
• Enjoys lounging outside
• Learning that the vacuum and garden hose are not scary!

She is truly a gem! Anyone would be lucky to have her apart of their home!
