Kate needs a caretaker or foster! Won't you consider helping her get a new start?
A little about me…Miss Kate They say I'm around 4 years old and have so much love bundled up inside me to give to my forever family. I know I can be shy sometimes, like when you’re trying to put a leash on me. Other then that, once I know your good, then I'm good. I love to be pet and have my ears massaged. In fact you could do this all day and I wouldn’t complain a bit. My foster mom says I remind her of a bunny. (Something about the Energizer Bunny she says?) I think she’s talking about how I never really sit or lay down, at least in the house. I do lay down outside after I play too much, other than that I get my rest in my kennel at night. I love having people around me. It doesn't matter who, I just want someone to pay attention to me. I really like being outside to sit and listen to all the sounds, oh yeh, and running and sniffing for all the scents in the ground. My foster Mom says I would do great in a fenced in yard because sometimes my sniffer gets a going and I don’t even realize that I’m out of the yard. I do well on a tie out though as long as you don't get to far away from me, if you do I might bark or even howl if you don't pay attention to me. I play well with my foster brother. He is a young Lab and gets a little nervous around me. I show him how to play it cool like a lady does. The barn cats here have taken a liking to me. I don’t mind them. They have chickens here too. I could care less. However those horses are just a little too scary for me right now! Also, I'd prefer to stay far away from anything with an engine or any loud sounds. I really, really like going for walks. I’m not the best at it. But hey I gotta smell things and wherever that smell is I have to find it. So if you happen to be in my way well you might get wrapped up with my leash, oh well…move, problem solved! I have had a couple accidents in the house in this first week. However I do not have any accidents in my kennel. I’m trying to perfect this and Mom says it gonna take some time. I think sometimes I just get too excited and don’t completely relieve myself. So in a little bit I might have to go again. Mom just takes me out quite often so I don't accidently go in the house and I'm doing really good with this. Sometimes when I'm in the house and want to go out I will do the slightest whine. Otherwise I'm really pretty quiet. I don't really care too much about treats...don't wanna mess my petite girlish figure. However a good rawhide or a bone from the butcher shop really hits the spot and Mom says it keeps me busy for awhile. If your curious about me and want to learn more contact.
