My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Bertha
Bertha is for sure a staff and volunteer favorite! She has one of the biggest personalities you will find and makes everybody laugh and shake their heads all at the same time. While she does enjoy a nice walk each day, she also equally loves being a couch potato; the fluffier blankets she can snuggle and snort in the better. Bertha is working on better manners on being taken out of her kennel and once outside she is all for human affection and quality one on one time. While she will play with a toy or explore the yard at first, her main goal is to be with her people.

Blue—14+ Kids, Only Pet
Requirements—Vet Check, Home Visit

Once Bertha is out of her kennel and has had a chance to run off her energy she calms down and is a great girl. She has a bad habit of nipping fingers, and sometimes jumping up on people, when excited. She loves all toys but you may need to trade with a high value treat to get it back. She has very mixed reactions with other dogs and for now would need to be an only pet.
