Story
Hello there! I’m Brownie, and I would love to be your new cuddle buddy. I weigh 30 pounds and am a 3-year-old mixed breed female. My foster parents believe I may be a mix of Blackmouth Cur and Terrier.
I am a shy yet very curious girl. I enjoy making new friends, both humans and dogs, but it takes me a few minutes to warm up. I like both big and small dogs, and I love to run and wrestle with them. Some noises scare me, particularly loud trucks, but I am becoming accustomed to them. I have never met any children, but I am very polite and docile. I am somewhat prey-driven and enjoy chasing after bunnies and squirrels, so I’m not sure how I would behave around cats.
I am extremely snuggly and spoon my foster mom every night in bed. I also love to lay next to her on the couch. I like to follow her around the house and gently bump my nose behind her knees to let her know I’m there. I do fine in a crate, but I would prefer to be with someone who is around frequently. I also love to play! I am learning to fetch by bringing the ball back and enjoy running around in circles when I’m excited. I walk well on a leash without pulling; however, I haven’t quite figured out how to walk in a straight line yet.
I am almost fully potty trained; I have a few accidents occasionally, but I do my best to avoid them.
I’m still learning basic commands, but I respond to a firm "no!" if I do something naughty and come when I’m called. I love treats and am sure to learn tricks with your help! As long as I get a few good zooms around the yard, I am a very polite and sweet little girl.
