When the shelter got her in she was very matted. We don't know what caused her to end up on her own but at some point somebody loved her. She loves attention. She is scared of children but if they are quiet and gentle she calms down and will hang out with them. She is a little odd but not in a bad way - she is obsessed with movement. We have a video up on our facebook age to show her with feet while you are walking. She will need someone stable that can watch their feet at least initially. She loves to play and even believes the other dogs want to play with her when they don't. She is just a very special, very sweet girl. She still acts very young and playful- loves the hand game where she attacks your hand to play (does not bite hard just attacks with her paws). She is just super cute.   Temperament- Super sweet, loves toys, and loves to lean and get as many pets as possible. She is a very quiet, sweet, gentle little girl who just wants to be loved. Energy Level- She is very active but doesn't run off or anything she just likes to play with her person and follow you around staring at your feet as you walk.  Dogs/Cats- Ignores the cats completely. She seems to want to play with the other dogs but they don't feel the same way towards her. She really would love a friend.   Housetrained- She seems somewhat house trained. However as with all new dogs she should be watched initially to ensure she doesn't start having accidents- she needs to be shown the rules of your home from the get go. Duchess is just too darn cute. She is a little shy when it comes to children but seemed to adjust quickly with them sitting quietly for her to go up to. She just needs space and time. This girl is going to be absolutely beautiful!! She loves toys, loves using your hands and feet as toys, loves the other dogs, loves getting all the pets. She is gong to make a wonderful addition to any family wanting a lovely perfect little girl to spoil and love.     Adoption fee $250 includes spay, age appropriate vaccinations (4 for puppies), deworming, microchip, rabies, collar and leash, training information, and all the support you need. Send us an e-mail to adopt@almosthomenm.org requesting an application to adopt this sweetie!! Animals are seen by appointment after we have an application.
