My story

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

Contact the foster at, melanjim95@gmail.com

Cookie is as sweet as her name suggest! ?? she adores head, butt scratches and loves to give hugs! An all around sweetheart and will win your heart over with her gorgeous eyes and beautiful coat! Cookie is content laying around and cuddling or snoozing the day away in her bed and blankets! She knows basic commands: “sit”, “down” and “stay”! I do believe she is part pig ???? and will not shy away from snort and huffing when sleeping! Rarely have I heard her bark but she can be vocal when playing around with toys! Cookie would walk better on a harness, she can be pretty strong! She is an absolutely lovely mix of playful and a lazy couch potato! ?? very loving and affectionate ???? has the cutest snorts ?? treat connessiour ?? non destructive when left alone, crate trained and LOVES her bed and blankets! ?? potty trained, no accidents but will let you know when she needs out! ?? loves to play and is the forever winner at Tug of war! ???? absolutely LOVES showering and playing in water ?? loves to chase and seek, so preferably a cat free home! ?? great with all age groups of kids ??definitely a strong girl on leash but listens to commands and has a great recall ?? slow intro to submissive dogs or only dog home would be best for her!
