She’s nearly house and crate trained! Tammy loves everyone she meets, and her tail never stops wagging! She’s a lap dog at heart and adores snuggling up for a cuddle session. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs, even the 120 lb Great Pyrenees in her foster home.  Adorable Features: Tammy has the cutest underbite, and her teeth are so white they look like veneers! Her quirky little smile will melt your heart. Bonus Fun Fact: Tammy wasn’t sure about crossing doorways at first, but after watching her foster siblings, she figured it out!
