Hello! My name is Allie, and wow, have I got a story to tell you! I used to live in a nice home with a nice family. They didn`t have me spayed, so I got pregnant. That was the beginning of all the trouble...
I had a BIG litter of puppies and everything was fine. Then I got an infection, and it became very painful for me when the puppies were nursing. Because of that, I would push them away, and sometimes I got a little rough with them. I didn`t mean to, but it hurt and I didn`t want them near me!
My Mom reached out for help, and the shelter took us in. When they saw how sick I was, they put me in a separate area until I felt better, and fed my puppies for me. I was sad that I couldn`t help, but I was glad they were doing good.
Before long, the puppies were old enough to find their forever homes, and that`s just what happened. I was happy that all of them went to good homes. Now it`s my turn!
I can be shy around new people at first, but once I know you, I`ll be your best friend. I`m cautious around men, but I think I could learn to trust them if they`re patient with me.
I think older, respectful children will be OK in my new home, but I don`t think I`d like them to chase me or try to ride on me. Riding is for horses, not dogs. If you already have a dog in your home, I`d like to meet him or her to be sure we can get along. I could probably live with a cat or two, as long as they`re nice to me.
I`m pretty much housebroken. That`s good, right? Humans seem to appreciate that I go potty outside, so I`ll keep doing that. I`m food motivated too (I love treats!), so training me to do fun tricks should be a breeze.
I enjoy a nice walk, and I`m pretty good on a leash. I might even enjoy running in a fenced yard or in the dog park. Since I`m only a year and a half old, I might find my playful self if someone would just spend some time with me and show me how to play.
After a day of walks and play, I`d like to spend a nice, quiet evening with my people. We could curl up on the couch and just enjoy each other`s company. I`ll sleep in your bed if that`s allowed, but if not, I`ll be just as happy on my own bed.
If you think I would make a perfect companion for you and your family, submit an adoption application to the shelter. Be sure to put my name at the top of the application so they know you want me! I hope we can meet soon, so we can start living our best life together.
