Story
Not too long ago there was a great tv series called “ANNE with an E.” Making her debut as a free woman is former breeder mama “NORAH with an H”, a 5-year-old approximately 18 lb Bichon Frise. I am not usually a small dog person, but this little lady has won me over. When she first arrived, her goal was wherever I was, she wasn’t, although she made sure I was always within her view. An evening of chin scratches and belly rubbing convinced her maybe I was ok. By day 3 she was a delight to have around – she is naturally inquisitive and alert to her surroundings. Living with 2 other (much bigger) canines, Norah quickly figured out the hierarchy and dynamics and was “one of the gang” in no time. I have left her alone in a room with just a baby gate and have also crated her. She is fine with either and has shown zero anxiety. Her personality is pleasant and kind. Not intimidated by the bigger dogs nor the vacuum nor the leaf blower. No signs of any resource guarding. Nondestructive. But it is not yet perfect. Like most dogs who come from a breeder environment, she missed most of the core skills training to enable her to thrive successfully in a home environment. She is not leash trained. While she arrived here with no potty sense, she now understands that pottying outside gets her a babytalk “good girl” acknowledgement and a pet, and just like her wariness of me when she first arriver here, I think within a couple of weeks max she would own it. She almost does here.Norah is a nice dog with a nice personality who just shrugs her shoulders and goes with the flow. And she makes me smile. To meet Norah, please complete an adoption application at https://dirtroaddoggiesrescue.org. $350 – UTD on all age appropriate and core vacs, spayed, HW & parasite negative, microchipped. ##2292871##
