12/21/2022: Introducing Pip!
Bio:
- 7 years old
- Spayed female
- Fawn coat
- Located in Monticello, IA
Basic Info:
- Velcro Dane, loves being around people and getting/receiving attention
- Has experience around kids and does well with them
- No formal training that we know of, but she does know sit/stay/lay down, and is currently working on learning "no"
- Has not been crated while in foster care. Pip has not needed to be left alone for periods longer than 20 minutes since coming into our rescue as foster mom works from home. We do not know how she would adjust to being left alone for extended periods
Likes:
- Snuggling on the couch
- Going for walks
- Car rides! She loves being shot gun in the front seat
- Playing with toys and other dogs- just be sure to clean up any toy stuffing or she may try to eat it!
Dislikes/Quirks:
- Requires slow introductions with new dogs. She has a dominant female personality and would not do well in a home with other dogs who also have dominant personalities
- Has shown some food related resource guarding. She is currently fed separately from the other dogs in the foster home
- She is a major counter surfer, so be sure to put all the good stuff away or she will find it!
Medical Notes:
- Has a dry eye condition in her left eye, which she has managed with applications of medicated ointment and saline drops
Hard Requirements For Forever Home:
- Physically fenced in yard
- Dog savvy cats only
- She is a very active gal, and needs a home willing to take her on walks and play outside with her
- If there are other dogs in the forever home, no dominant personalities please. A submissive companion would suit her best
