Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Age: 2.5 years
Breed: Chihuahua mix
Is your dog good with other dogs: Yes
Is your dog good with cats: Unknown
Is your dog good with kids: Yes, she loves children, she loves anyone who will pay attention to her!
Is your dog house trained: Almost
Is your dog crate trained: No, Willow does not like the crate, and will whine and scratch to get out.
Does your dog have any special needs: No
Does your dog have any or display any aggression (toys, food, people): No
Is your dog playful: She is friendly and playful, but does not yet know how to play with toys.
Does your dog like to snuggle: Willow loves to cuddle and she feels her best when she is touching a human. Given the chance, she will be on your lap.
Does your dog know basic commands: Working on sit , come.
Does your dog know any special tricks: No
Does your dog like to go on walks: Willow is not used to walks. She does not know what she is supposed to do, so this continues to be a work in progress. She is fearful of cars and loud noises.
Does your dog have any fears: Willow might have had an abusive past. She is fearful of sudden movements, and will often turn on her back with her tail tucked when you try to pet her or pick her up. She is doing better and is learning to trust that she is safe. This work will need to continue once she is adopted.
Does your dog have any unique traits you have noticed whether in personality or physically: Willow loves to be around people and will follow her humans everywhere. Willow has the potential to learn quickly once she knows what is expected of her.
What are the 3 first words that come to mind when you think of your dog: Sweet, cuddly, loving
In a short paragraph Please provide any other details or a brief overview of your foster dog:
Willow has some fears and some anxious behavior. But her curiosity and loving nature makes her move forward and she is learning to trust and be loved. In the few short days in the foster home, Willow has made tremendous strides, such as, not cowering when she is being petted, climbing on our lap, learning to sit and potty training. She does not like being away from her humans, and can whine when she sees you leaving.
