Tic

I'm easy to train and very food motivated. I'm very affectionate and close to my humans once they've gained my trust. I don't jump on people and I like to rest in my cage. I'm shy, however, so strangers need to be respectful of my space to help me get used to them.

​

I'm housebroken; I ask for the door to go out and do my business, and I have a good recall (when you say "puppyyyy"). I let my claws be trimmed without any fuss; they say I'm a good girl! I like to play and do any kind of training that involves rewards. I'm quiet in the house, and I'm less vocal than I used to be.

​

I can have dog friends of all sizes; I love to play with them after a good introduction. I'm not a good candidate for dog parks, but I could get along with dogs in quiet places. I would, however, be happier being the only pet in the house, as I do resource guarding with various things (including water and food).

​

I'm not very athletic. Mental stimulation and play are enough for me, and I can stay at home on my own, chilling in my cage. I love tug toys and surprise boxes. I'm also an avid chewer; give me a bone to chew on and my anxiety will ease in certain situations, especially when there are visitors!

​

My foster mom taught me a few basic commands: sit, recall and turn. She also worked a lot on my socialization and desensitization. She says I've made great progress! I'm now looking for an adoptive family with a calm temperament who understands that, because of my shyness, it will take patience and gentleness to tame me. Once I'm confident, I'll have a lot of love to give!
