Sissy is an incredibly sweet girl with a fun-loving personality! Sissy goes with the flow and is always ready for whatever adventure comes her way. She loves meeting new people just as much as she loves spending time with the people she already knows and trusts. She is very affectionate and enjoys belly rubs and attention. She is eager to please and thrives on companionship. After being crated for a while, she can be quite energetic until she has had a chance to use that energy then she is happy to chill. One of her most impressive talents is jumping straight up nearly 4 feet in the air when she is happy and excited! Sissy is working on not jumping up on people when she's feeling that enthusiastic. Sissy is also working on her leash and house training and like any young pup would benefit from basic skills classes. Sissy loves a car ride and is crate trained. She is a playful young pup and loves to wrestle with her doggie friends. She has shown interest in cats when introduced. Her busy foster home included adults, kids, other pups and cats. Sissy is not overly vocal but will give a bark to alert her humans about company coming. Some of her background: Sissy was dumped at her foster’s house late at night right before a big winter storm. She was heavily pregnant at the time and delivered a week later. She was a wonderful mother to her puppies and cared for them with much patience and love. Now it's Sissy's turn to have her happy furever home and be shown the care and love that she shows others. An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see HERE for more information about this.
