e and attention to give. My favorite thing in the world is to cuddle up next to my humans on a comfy couch or chair. I love to be scratched, especially on my face and head. I also enjoy a short play session of tossing a toy and getting some zoomies out. I’m pretty low energy and don’t really require daily walking. Because I’m a little timid I sometimes like a walk but sometimes I get scared and don’t really want to go far from home. I think over time I could get more used to the leash and everything outside and might enjoy more of a walk. But only if it’s nice and warm out! I really don’t like the cold, rain, or snow. I may have a little harder time going potty outside when the weather is not my favorite. I could benefit from having a little covered area outside to potty under. I’m also still working on potty training. I do a great job of peeing outside but sometimes will go #2 inside. If I’m on a regular schedule then I can usually do all my business outside. Something I’m great at no matter the weather is my kennel! I love having my own kennel area to go in and out of when I want. I do great sleeping quietly in my kennel when I’m home alone, even for extended periods like a work day. I’m not much of a barker at all! The most noise I make is some whining when my humans come home and sometimes some growling if I’m feeling nervous. As far as other pets go I seem to be fine around cats, but I would probably do best with cats that are comfortable around dogs. My info coming into foster care says I’m good with dogs but I haven’t met any dogs since staying in my foster home. I haven’t met any kids yet but most likely I’d be a little scared around younger kids and would prefer older calmer kids. I also haven’t spent a lot of time in the car besides my short drive home. I seemed to do okay but I may need some practice and good experiences to help me get used to the car. Finally I’ll admit I don’t have much obedience training. I could use maybe a class or some at home training if you’d like me to learn how to sit, stay, etc. But so far this hasn’t really been an issue for my foster humans since I’m sweet as pie! If I sound like the perfect match please apply to adopt me!
