Story
Willow is a 35 lb beauty who would love to find a home with another playful pup and a family who can appreciate a silly strut. She is super affectionate and will climb into any available lap and do her best to give as many kisses as she can. She has a neurological condition that can weaken her hind legs, and so far, it presents mostly through her silly little strut and some slips and slides on hardwood or tile surfaces. Don’t worry though, she is completely UNFAZED by her rough and tumble lifestyle, she just gets right back up and keeps going. She spends most of her time playing with her 75 lb foster brother or asking for playtime from her foster parents. She would do best in a home with dogs and people that want to play! She has a prey drive, so cats are likely a no-go, and as a more mouthy girl, she would do best with kids older than 13. She does great in her crate and goes in happily when a treat is tossed in to tempt her. She does bark for a few minutes when she knows her people are leaving, but settles down quickly. She has shown some resource guarding around food, so she is currently fed in her crate and there have been no issues. Potty training is also going well, and she is consistently peeing and pooping outside! She is the perfect girl for anyone who is searching for some excitement in a fun size package. updated 02/10/25
