Diamond is a sweet senior girl who gets along well with dogs, cats, and everyone else. She enjoys hanging around outside in pleasant weather or chilling on the couch while watching TV. She has quickly picked up the routine in her foster home and will let people know if they aren't doing what they should be. She doesn't like being left out of whatever it is you are doing and will follow her people around. She is deaf and is learning her signs; she is very food motivated which helps greatly in her training. While she does get along well with other pets, as long as she has people around she would do well as the only pet. Older children who would be respectful of her age would also be welcomed. If there are other dogs in the home, older / calmer dogs would be best since she wants to romp and play even though she probably shouldn't. At 15 years old she does have some age-related conditions which require regular medication and supplements. But due to her tolerant nature she takes her meds without any problems. She does have some weakness in her backend and an old cruciate tear injury on her right rear knee making stairs sometimes a challenge. She can also be vocal at times, so a single-story single-family home would be best. Overall she's a goofy cuddly girl who is looking for friends and a soft calm place to spend her senior years.
