Kimmy's wishlist for a forever home includes the basics, like lots of love and cuddles and those belly rubs she's learning all about, room to play and someone to play with, but also a patient home that is willing to work with her on her nervous barking (usually when she sees something strange, strangers, or other dogs). Kimmy would love to socialize with other dogs - she just needs practice meeting other pups.
Kimmy is still really good in her crate and just loves her foster parents and people she sees regularly. We're working on "down" and her potty training is really coming along. We haven't had a foster pup that's had as much free run of the house as Kimmy (not even our own ARF puppy), and we credit this to routines and regular trips outside. She now only messes (knock wood) when we are out of the house.
She gets pretty excited and is starting to pull on her leash (it may just be because she's walking with another dog), but her new home will have to do some loose leash training. But no worries, she's very motivated by treats and very eager to please!
