Shasta is an absolute joy, and you couldn't wish for a dog with a better disposition. She's cheerful and fun without being overly hyper, and has a contagious smile. She's affectionate and interactive, but also likes hanging out by herself in the backyard. She's friendly to all people and dogs she meets, and is submissive without being timid. She would definitely be a favorite at the dog park! Shasta is house trained, shows no interest in getting on furniture and has no guarding behaviors. She could use some work on the leash, but her smaller size makes her manageable, and she learns quickly. She's currently doing great living with three dogs of different sizes and would be a good fit in a family with kids and/or other dogs.
