Behavioral Needs - Needs Experienced Adopter

Good with dogs? Katniss needs a home with no other dogs, but can play with other dogs who can match her energy level and are tolerant of her playstyle. She has attended daycare and done well.

Good with cats? No

Good with kids? Yes, kids 10+, she may accidentally tackle smaller humans with her exuberant affection.

Energy level: High! Katniss is a curious, explorative girl who loves stimulation and activity, but can also calm down and snooze peacefully or cuddle in a lap. She loves to play with all kinds of toys and take leisurely walks, sniffing and observing the world around her.

Behavioral needs: Katniss did not have the easiest start in life. She was taken from her prior owners who did not provide a nurturing environment or proper puppy training and socialization. Katniss has made great progress with daily training and reinforcement of good behaviors. Katniss is an enthusiastic learner with a zest for life, ready for an owner who'll be committed to guiding her journey through continued positive training and proper socialization experiences. She is a bright, attentive, good listener who is eager to learn, loves human interaction, and is motivated by treats and food. She may chase small animals such as squirrels. She will voluntarily enter a crate to rest.

Animal Characteristics: Katniss is a sweet, playful, high energy, joyful, pup who is eager to make friends with everyone she meets! She has an exuberant, friendly temperament and a tremendous amount of love to give. She needs an equally loving, patient home in which she can enjoy positive play and enrichment as she grows out of her puppy phase.
