Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Behaviors- 🧁Sweetest, low maintenance girl. She loves relaxing near her people and is very affectionate and playful once she’s comfortable and feeling safe. She will do just about anything for chicken🍗🐔🐓 or plain cheerios and loves a booty scratch or belly rub once she’s comfortable with you.
Cats: 🐈Sniffs and gets sniffed, no barking, chasing or aggression. Mostly indifferent but would probably play with a cat that was interested. 🐈
Other dogs: 🐩 she seems to really like well-mannered dogs of a similar size and would likely open up faster with a doggie companion.🐕
Children: 👪 Hasn't met any tiny children but likes the resident twelve-year-old. Young, fast-moving kiddos would likely scare her. 👪
Adults: 👨 Shy at first, is much more open with foster than visitors. She needs consistency and patience to feel safe with new people. Chicken is your bargaining chip!! 👨
Potty Training Progress: 💩 95% potty trained! Does all her pees outside, she does poop on a potty pad once a day but would pick that up in a snap with another dog and a fenced yard to roam. 💩
Other behavioral info: ℹ️ Darcy is a special girl that needs a special home. She spent 5 years in puppy mill hell and needs time to decompress in her new home and learn to trust that new people mean her no harm. She is not a lap dog – yet- but may become one with time and patience. She likes to be in the same room with her people but not in your face. ℹ️
