Meet Scrappy with an expression that is irresistible! This sweet girl is looking for a home that will give her all the love and attention she deserves. She's people-oriented and always wants to be close. Cuddling on the couch, following you around, or giving nonstop kisses (seriously... no body part is safe!) A few things about her: Tested well with dogs Good with cats, curious but gentle and doesn't chase Friendly with everyone she meets Walks great on a leash Rides well in the car Loves toys and playtime Food motivated Has an adorable sploot Things she's working on: She can get very excited when greeting people. She is looking for a family that can reign in her puppy powers by setting boundaries and continue working on polite greetings and calmer attention-seeking behaviors. She takes a little time to settle in her crate. She's a loving, affectionate girl who truly just wants to be near her people. With structure, consistency, and lots of love, she's going to make someone an incredibly loyal companion. Medical note: Lyme and Ehrlichiosis positive.. *I am Lyme and Ehrlichia positive. Treatment is typically 28 days of doxycycline (an inexpensive antibiotic). With this disease, a dog may always test positive even if treated. The adopter is responsible for treatment, including cost. Its always a good idea to plan to keep your dog on a joint supplement for life.
