My story

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

Tootie is a “sock toy” aficionado and official sweetheart hoping to find her forever home with a patient family that can build their relationship together at her pace. Described by her foster as an amazing girl, Tootie enjoys just being next to her peeps while they work, sleeping on her doggy bed calmly throughout the night, having belly rubs, and playing catch. Tootie has an endearing personality and will let you know when she’s super relaxed, as she will roll over onto her back and present her “polka-dot tummy” for all to see!

Tootie is a little nervous with new people, and would do best taking things slowly to help her feel comfortable with new situations and people. Once she’s relaxed, she’ll soon reward you with all her love and affection! Tootie’s a clever pup who loves enrichment activities, such as nose work and learning tricks!

Are you Tootie’s new family? If you’ve had some experience with dogs, and are happy to take introductions at Tootie’s pace, it won’t be long before you’ll be rewarded with the honour of giving her the belly rubs she loves and all the affection this sweet gal has to possess!
