If yes, what's the youngest child you'd recommend they be placed with? Children who are old enough to be gentle with a puppy, and who can understand about sharp teething puppy teeth.

Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them? Nori is a smart puppy who has kept her crate clean and will signal by whining when she has to potty. She's learning commands..."Nori come" and "sit". She loves to play with toys and her foster (dog) sister. She's very food motivated. She's adventurous and not fearful at all. She navigated steps (as big as her!) on the first try with little coaxing. She's a sweetheart with typical puppy energy. She has a great personality and has been a hit wherever she goes!
