Important Facts About Fiona Dogs: Has been in foster with several other dogs and gotten along well with all of them! Cats: Has gotten along well with the cat in the foster home. Kids: Has been fostered with children and did great! House-trained: Yes!
Meet Fiona, the sweetest girl you’ll ever meet! While she may be a little shy at first, it doesn’t take long for her to show her amazing personality. Fiona is the perfect snuggle buddy, always ready to curl up next to you and soak up all the cuddles. Her first foster family told us, `She is very dog social, cat friendly, very kid friendly, very house-broken, loves to fetch, loves to hike, always carries a toy in her mouth, and loves sofa sleepies!`
Her second foster family wrote: `Fiona is a wonderful dog and was a perfect house guest! She’s always up for an adventure and enjoyed long walks around the neighborhood, calmly greeting every person and dog she met. She really enjoyed all the sights and smells at the farmer’s market where she attempted to order a cold brew but settled for a pup cup. She’s always down for a game of fetch and enjoyed running around the backyard chasing and chewing on balls– rain or shine! At home she’s such a cuddle bug and loves to hunker down for epic couch snuggles. She also makes an excellent officemate – quietly playing with her toys or snoozing away on her doggy bed while you do all the work. At night she has enjoyed sleeping on the couch in the living room or in a dog bed in the bedroom– though she may have attempted to hop in the human bed a couple of times. Bonus: Fiona is house trained and walks well on leash! Fiona absolutely adores children and did fantastically with our 2.5 year old. She was so gentle, sweet, and patient. My daughter and Fiona became fast friends.`
If you’re looking for a loyal and loving companion who will warm your heart, Fiona is the one for you!
