Miss Nami! The happiest little heeler of all heelers; if her honey brown eyes don't steal your heart, her cuddles will. Her lopsided ears really just pull her personality all together, as goofy as can be. We know Nami will do phenomenally in most homes (meeting the below needs) spreading her love through kisses and cuddles EVERYWHERE she goes! Nami has gotten to spend some time in a foster home, and we know more about her now more than ever! This sweet girl is crate-trained, seemingly house-broken, leash-trained, but also can sleep outside the crate without any issues, has a pretty solid recall, LOVES snuggling more than we even imagined, prefers to sleep in bed with people, but is content in her kennel, as well. She's not destructive, and loves to play with stuffed toys. Nami has a one of a kind personality of a cattle dog, as she's content being lazy, but will also be up and ready for an adventure at moments notice. We honestly don't think having a dog gets much better than her! Especially at only 4.5 years old, and she loves cats!
Since Nami was a stray, found likely after being struck by a vehicle, she's undergone an FHO surgery to correct her hip dislocation; however, when we got her, she was still incredibly emaciated. With that said, she has resource guarding tendencies and she will go after other dogs she feels threatened by. However, if they're willing to correct her, she does stop. The unfortunate side of her, is she definitely does NOT know just how small she is, and has no issue taking on a much larger dog.
We will be offering free behavioral help to anyone wanting to successfully integrate her into their home, whether you have other dogs, or just want that peace of mind!
Nami is currently Heartworm Positive, however, we've begun the pre-treatment stages, and she's scheduled for treatment late 2024, and early 2025, which we will be covering for any adopters.
