Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello,
I’m Rachel 🙂
The vet says I’m estimated to be around 12-13 years old, but I am in good health!
I am very independent but I actually have moments where I need my foster family’s cuddles and snuggles.
I seem to have great experience with little kids because I love my foster little brother and sister. They give me treats and lay with me when I sleep. I also have foster fur brother and sister and although they bother me so much, I just give them their space and hide from them. I have no teeth but that does not stop me from being a sassy, strong fighter.
When it’s time to play in the yard, I like to just lay by my foster mom’s legs. I am not much of a walker but it is nice once in a while, and for a short time period.
I do like to sleep in my crate, with a blanket, but I need my space to do my business because it seems like I have a very small bladder and very little control but my foster mom has made a space for me using a puppy pen with a pad that I know is meant for my business (my foster mom says I’m super smart because of this and many other things I have done to show that to my foster mom).
I am hoping for a forever home that will love me unconditionally ❤️
