Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Suzie, a spirited and resilient female dog with a heart full of hope! Once a wanderer, she spent her days exploring neighborhoods, searching for a place to call home. With her bright, expressive eyes and a wagging tail that never seems to tire, Suzie captures the hearts of everyone she meets.
Despite her uncertain beginnings, Suzie has an adventurous spirit. She’s a quick learner, full of energy, and loves to play fetch and go on long walks. Her gentle nature makes her a perfect companion for both kids and adults, and her loyalty knows no bounds.
Now, Suzie is ready to settle down with a forever family who will cherish her adventurous heart and shower her with love. She may have roamed from house to house, but she’s finally found her way to happiness, and she’s excited to share it with you!
SHE IS GOOD WITH OTHER DOGS AS LONG AS THERE IS NO FOOD AROUND. SHE CAN BE FOOD AGGRESSIVE BUT DOES LIKE TO PLAY WITH OTHER DOGS.
