My personality

My story

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

PLEASE READ THE BIO AND DON'T INQUIRE SIMPLY BASED ON HER PICTURE! UNTIL POSIE GOT TO HER FOSTER FAMILY, WE BELIEVE SHE SPENT THE MAJORITY OF HER LIFE IN A CRATE, UNFAMILIAR WITH THE OUTDOORS, MINIMAL INTERACTIONS WITH PEOPLE, AND HAD NEVER FELT GRASS.

Nicknames: Posie Rosie, piglet, mamas

Breed: Bully mix? Frenchie mix? Pittie Mix? Frenchie/Pit?

Age: 3 years

Weight: short and stocky.

Key descriptors: Lovable. Silly. Snuggly. Opinionated. Hungry.

Energy level: low. She is the queen of daytime naps, she went on her first half mile walk and I think she said 1 was enough for the rest of her life. She will chase a ball or toy if thrown, and bring it back.

What we love: She’s a snuggler. She’s a comedian with her ears and bully wiggle.

What she loves: Food. Lovins. Naps. Toys. Her bed. Snuggles. All of the attention. Treats

What makes us laugh: Her EARS that can’t decide if they are yoda, frenchie or pug. The random tooth that with snaggle her lip. How fast she thinks she’s going when she has the zoomies but she’s got tiny legs! The fact that at any point of the day she wants to be breathing the same cubic inch of air as you. How excited she gets when she experiences something new; running around and make sure to lean in for a hug each lap!

What she knows: Sit. Come. Look.

What she’s working on: Taking treats less piranha-like. Building her confidence around strangers, and outside. Keeping four on the floor.

Learning how to be a dog.

House-trained: No. potty pad trained and with time & consistency she could be now that she’s getting over her fear of outside. When she gets excited she will mouth your hands but not bite.

She’s SMART! Learned to potty pad train & look command in a matter of hours. Treat motivated!

Dogs: She’s fostered with one male dogs now and has done well with slow introduction. She has not met any female dogs. She has become more vocal (talk) when she wants your attention or is happy to see you! Loves to chew her toys, and has started getting zoomies! She could be fine as a solo gal!

Cats: Not tested.

No littles, preferably 12+. She will steal food out of their hands and probably take the plate, too. Fast movements are a no go for her, she startles easily.

Bark: only when she's excited or to alert. Will stop when you acknowledge her. She does not bark while left home, she’s busy napping.

Crate-trained: currently only rides in her crate for long car rides, as we believe she spent a lot of time in her earlier days in her crate. She does well in her own space with her potty pad and bed with a couple toys.

What she needs: a home with consistent schedule, experience in rehabilitating dogs from abuse/neglect.
