I smile in my sleepadorable, right? When Im not dreaming up cute things, Im busy zooming around the yard like a rocket, racing my foster sister until we both collapse like a couple of tired noodles. I love to play, and Ill take a playmate anytimedog, human, you name it! Ive got springs in my legs and can jump over baby gates like its nothing, so make sure my yard is escape-proof. Oh and I also love chew toys. They are my best friends. Im a little nervous at first when I meet new dogs, but give me a few minutes and Im in the thick of things. Im curious about cats but mostly leave them alonetheyre weird but in a cool way, I guess. I adore all people, though if I get too excited, I might accidentally boop someone mid-jump. Im working on it, promise! My crate is my little safe space. I like to stay close to my humans too when Im feeling nervous, like when the vacuum shows up (why does it exist?!).
