We figured it was time for an update on little K's progress in her foster home as we help her in her search for the best forever home to meet her needs and make her the happiest little rescue pup. Here's what we can report!
-Loves walks and playing in the backyard with her fellow canine friend
-Lives with cats, and is indifferent most of the time
-Definitely food motivated and eager to please (has learned to sit, shake a paw (she LOVES this trick), down (in progress) and sometimes... fetch!
-Potty training is going really well - hardly any accidents and she's definitely used to routines
-Some car sickness if she's eaten before a car ride
-Belly rubs: We take this as a sign that K is really comfortable here. She curls up on the doormat and whenever you walk by, she rolls over to expose her belly and uses pleading eyes and a wagging tail to say, "please rub my belly, please!"
-Kimmy is accustomed to her crate, and as long as she's had some good exercise, she doesn't make a peep when she goes to bed
-Recall is pretty good for her age, but she's also very, very interested in rabbits:)
-Barking: Kimmy's forever home needs to accept everything that makes K who she is, including her nervous barking. Applicants should consider how they will work with Kimmy on her barking to help her be the best doggy she can be
-Socialization: Kimmy has had to fend for herself - her forever home will be prepared to spend lots of time getting Kimmy used to meeting different kinds of people and hanging out with other dogs.
