Name: Simone
Nicknames: Wild child. Oh, my sweet girl. Hey you, stop that!
Breed: Havanese mix
Sex: Female
Age: ~1 year
Weight: 8 lbs
Before OMD: OMD Rescue took Simone and 3 of her housemates, into rescue when a local animal shelter impounded over 50 animals from a hoarding case. There were 23 dogs and they were under socialized, matted, and covered in urine and feces. Simone, Hezly, Suni and Jordan have been with dedicated OMD foster families learning what it means to live in loving homes, “how to dog” and, of course, receiving their vet care.
Energy Level: High. You will often find her zooming around the yard, or racing from the couch, to the dog bed, to the couch, to the chair, to the big bed, to the couch (often while carrying a toy) to back outside for some more intense zoomies….or cuddled up with foster mom.
Confidence Level: Medium. She is very confident in her foster home, but can be timid in the outside world – which isn’t surprising given her history and the likelihood she was never brought outside the first year of her life. She is definitely all “flight” vs “fight” when she is nervous
Descriptors: Playful. Mischievous. Puppy-like. Shadow. Sweet. Snuggleable.
What we love most: How she nuzzles up perfectly into your neck. Her exuberance for life. Her sweet, innocent nature. Her conversations during food prep. How she checks-in with you when she is unsure or something exciting is happening.
What she loves most: Zooming though the yard. Supervising kitchen prep. Snuggling. Nylabones. Crinkle toys. Sleeping in bed with foster mom – and being right in foster mom’s face, ready to take on the day, as soon as she hears her stir.
What she doesn’t love: The car – she’s gotten car sick a few times.
What she knows: Not much tbh. She’s learning “how to dog” and be even more confident in the outside world. Plus, life is best when running zoomies or bouncing around excitedly, so who has time to listen.
Working on: Basic commands. Housetraining. Being alone (wants to be know her person is always close by, and when home alone can be vocal). Not chewing the charger cords and the drawstrings of hoodies.
Kids: Dog-savvy, older kids only please. She has not shown any aggression to people, but very young chaotic, loud kiddos would make her nervous.
Dogs: Yes please! She would love a playmate. She is currently fostered in a pack of pups, most of them senior – when they do not want her in their space and are tired of her exuberance, they let her know and she moves on.
Cats: Yes again! Currently lives with cats
Housetraining: She came into rescue completely not housetrained (again, unsurprising given her history) and is trying her best, but will need a family dedicated to working with her
Crate trained: Nope. Being confined in the crate stresses her out.
Simone is spayed, vaccinated, heartworm negative, and microchipped. She is available for adoption to residents of CT and surrounding states. If you are interested in adopting, please complete an application from omdrescue.org.
