Meet Sweetie!
This adorable older puppy is seeking her perfect fit. Poor Sweetie has been through a lot in her short life. She was found as a young puppy on the streets of South Texas next to her deceased brother who had sadly been hit by a car. She went to foster care where she thrived with older children, cats, and dogs. Sweetie is a homebody dog. She really enjoys relaxing in her space with her person. She is crate trained, dog door trained, potty trained, and is trustworthy in the home alone. Sweetie needs a family that is committed to her and will stick by her. Sadly she has been let down by humans for her entire life and is ready for her new family to show her the calmer, and more understanding side of life. Sweetie's ideal life would be someone that works from home or is retired. She enjoys other dogs, but resource guards food, so applicants with other dogs would need to show they're prepared to feed her separately until she learns there isn't a shortage of food or treats. Although Sweetie has done well with cats in the past, we are seeking placement without cats to try to make the best possible match. Sweetie would thrive as an only dog as well. She loves to play with her stuffies, and would benefit from training for confidence building when it comes to going for walks or outings. Sweetie tends to be nervous around kids, she's very much a dog that would enjoy a teenager or adult only household. She also needs a yard, apartment living isn't the best match for her. Sweetie is a wonderful and smart dog with a mellow and loving demeanor. Sweetie is fostered near Olympia, WA.
