Additional info:

Birdie was rescued from a hoarding situation and spent her life surrounded by very many small dogs and had very little socialization and structure. We think a home with another small dog would make her happy. Birdie is a confident, sweet little girl. She can be a bit bossy, which is funny since she is so tiny. She loves people, attention, and cuddling up with her foster brother and sister. She also loves to lay in the sun and explore the backyard. With a little training and effort, she will be an awesome dog and your BFF. I have seen her come out of her shell and become less fearful and much more trusting of me in the time I have had her (2 weeks.) She sleeps in a large crate with her siblings at night. She is learning to walk on a leash and seems to love the adventure of a walk!
