Behavior: INDEPENDENT BUT LOVES TO CUDDLE. HAS ALWAYS BEEN A KENNEL DOG SO SHE IS GETTING USED TO BEING LOVED ON!
Activity Level: HIGH ACTIVITY LEVEL. SWEETIE HAS BEEN GOING THROUGH HEARTWORM TREATMENT SO SHE HAS BEEN LEASHED WALKED ONLY.
Fence REQUIRED: MOST DEFINITELY NEEDS A FENCE.
Medical History: SWEETIE IS SPAYED, UP TO DATE ON VACCINES & MICROCHIPPED. VERY HEALTHY. SHE HAS BEEN PUTTING ON WEIGHT AND HAS NO PROBLEMS WITH HER HEARTWORM TREATMENT.
Foster Comments: SWEETIE WAS RAISED IN A KENNEL AND USED AS A HUNTING DOG BUT NOT WELL TRAINED. IF SHE IS GOING TO A HUNTING DOG FAMILY IT WILL TAKE SOME PATIENCE AND TRAINING. SOMEONE HAS USED AN ELECTRONIC SHOCK COLLAR AND SHE IS EXTREMELY SENSITIVE TO CORRECTION WITH A LEASH. I RECOMMEND A GENTLE LEADER OR A HARNESS FOR WALKING.
SHE IS AN ACTIVE DOG SO WOULD BE GREAT FOR SOMEONE THAT IS OUTDOORSY! I WAS TOLD BY THE MAN THAT TOOK HER IN FROM THE HORRIBLE CONDITIONS SHE WAS LIVING IN THAT SHE WILL RUN A FENCE LINE AND CONTINUALLY BARK. I FOUND THAT TO BE TRUE IN A 4 FT BY 6 FT RUN. BECAUSE OF HER HEARTWORM TREATMENT I HAVE ONLY BEEN LEASH WALKING BECAUSE SHE CAN NOT BE ALLOWED TO RUN. SHE IS EXCELLENT IN A CRATE. VERY QUIET AND CLEAN. SHE HOWEVER DOES NOT LIKE ANOTHER DOG WALKING NEXT TO HER CRATE WHILE SHE IS EATING.
SHE IS EXTREMELY SWEET AND SMART SO I DO NOT THINK IT WOULD TAKE ANY TIME FOR HER TO SETTLE DOWN TO BEING A COUCH POTATO! SHE WOULD LOVE AN ACTIVE HOME WHERE SHE CAN GO HIKING AND PLAY WITH A FEW KIDS. SWEETIE HAS HAD A ROUGH START AND DESERVES TO BE WITH A LOVING FAMILY THAT IS WILLING TO WORK WITH TEACHING HER WHAT LOVE AND FAMILY LIFE IS!
