Hi there! Iandamp;#39;m Legalos&#44 and Iandamp;#39;m a shy but sweet girl looking for my forever home.

Older kids would be great&#44 too-I appreciate a calm and gentle touch!andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Since I can be a bit timid&#44 Iandamp;#39;d like to meet everyone in the home before I settle in.

Story
We adopted Kudu from Chip and dales rescue. His birthday is October 20, 2020. He is a really sweet dog but has his quirks. Kudu has some anxiety and is reactive in certain circumstances which makes him not a good fit for a house with young children (like we have). If someone bothers him when he is sleeping he will give a warning snap 'saying back off'. He has bitten a child before. Very small but it did break skin. He also has some reactivity when other dogs walk in front of our house, but he does great on a leash when passing other dogs. He loves running and playing fetch in our fenced yard I think he would do best in a quiet home or on a farm. We have dog sat our neighbors dog many times and he does great with dogs he is familiar with! . Thanks for reading Jacquie

Story
This adorable guy is ready to give an abundance of love to someone! He is very lovable and a cuddler. He's also very timid and unsure of new surroundings but really coming out of his shell with his foster family. He is playful with foster fur siblings and not bothered in the least by the foster's cat. Seems to do fine with kids also. Bugs Bunny has an easy going personality and is very smart. Working on potty training with good results in short time. Given some patience and love this puppy would be a devoted companion. When you meet this guy you'll surely want him furever! Bugs is nine months old, neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations. If you are interested in him please fill out an application on the website. MSCrescue.org
