Hey - I'm Birdy, and I just turned 2 years old on 12/1/2009! I weigh about 60 pounds, and my foster Mom says that I ROCK!!
I'm named Birdy because when my ears are up (and out!) at full attention, they look like bird wings!
I'm eager to please and I can't get enough petting!! I'm not super needy though - I'll back off if you tell me to!
I'm a little unsure of myself sometimes - a sudden loud noise or movement might startle me a bit - but hey, wouldn't it startle you?
My foster Mom says I'm a klutz - but she says it's super entertaining! I know sometimes when I'm surprised at a noise or if I think my foster Mom and canine foster sister are going somewhere without me, or if I'm just trying to do the right thing, I'll end up losing sense of what my own body is doing! I guess it must be funny to see me step in my water bowl or knock the broom over - all because I'm excited!
I absolutely LOVE the dog park! I run, play, and have a ball - and my favorite thing to do there is to walk over to the giant water bucket, stick my WHOLE head under the water. trot over to an unsuspecting dog owner, and then shake off!
I'm housetrained, leash trained, and crate train. I know my basic obedience commands too!
I don't care for cats much and I howl if I hear a siren - but other than that, Mom says I'm the perfect girl!
I've been spayed, am heartworm negative, am up to date with vaccinations, and am on monthly heartworm and flea/tick prevention.
I won't be adopted out to a family with children under the age of 8 because I'm just not used to the activity levels of children younger than that.
