Meet Gretchen!
Adorable Gretchen had a rough start with an abusive owner. Once confiscated she entered a wonderful foster home who have shown her so much love! She is ready for a loving home that will always take care of her and in return, you will be so rewarded.
What's wonderful about Gretchen?
She has a lovely soft coat and loves to play fetch or play with soft squeaky toys. She loves her walks but also likes being a couch potato and wants to snuggle under a blanket with you. She is fully potty trained and sleeps through the night. She is a big kisser and a cuddle bug. Gretchen rides well in the car and is good with baths.
Gretchen's challenges:
She is a bit reactive on leash towards other dogs. This needs work and we can guide you with that. Reactivity is often a sign of fear and as she learns to be more confident, this behavior will diminish. Gretchen can also be protective of her fave people. She is a bit wary of strangers and it takes her a minute to warm up. Once she loves you and trusts you, she is the sweetest cuddler.
She has a bit of separation anxiety. She can be alone for 4 or so hours, but will cry a bit at first. She will need to be in a home with a yard.
Gretchen will be a lovely companion in a home without other dogs and without young kids. We hope to find her a family who will be patient with her as she learns to trust.
She is updated on shots, spayed and will be chipped. Her adoption fee is $395.
