Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Personality: sweet, loves attention from the people she likes, loves to play, loves stuffed animals (Does not eat the stuffing!!), high energy when allowed (when interactive play is offered), mostly calm otherwise. Doesn't bark unless she is around other dogs
Quirks: afraid of most people, can warm up over time, but takes many bribes and patience. Does considerably better indoors than outdoors, but has been improving over time with more and more exposure. Has a harder time with people wearing hats or holding long objects. If someone walks away, she becomes immediately interested in smelling them to figure out who they are, but does not mean she wants to meet them. Does not always recognize boundaries of what is and is not hers, so best to crate if gone for long hours. When nervous, grumbles in a way that is similar, but not the same as, a growl... Very non-agressive, just shy until comfortable. Does not always understand where the bathroom isn't in new environments.
Tricks: Very smart, learns extremely quickly. She does best with verbal cues along with hand motions. she knows: Sit, Down, Shake, Stand (on back legs), Go on Up (works for car or elevated surface), and Crate
Likes: She loves to play and cuddle with people she trusts. LOVES peanut butter. Likes to play with dogs she knows and trusts (needs some calm introduction before playtime). Likes to play interactive games such as fetch and chase (for some reason she has only figured out how to play indoors). Likes going new places once her nerves has settled down. Loves belly rubs. Loves to run with owner. Likes long good morning interactions
Dislikes: Is afraid of kids. Shy's away, but need to watch in case. Does not like when people she does not know come quickly towards her (is fine with owner).
Note: she does like people, she just doesn't know that until she has gotten comfortable around them.
