Dog's Name: Cookie Age / Size: 3 years old / 7 lbs Rescued in Texas, surrendered by previous owner through no fault of her own 💙 Foster Note What I love most about Cookie is how deeply she bonds once she feels safe. She follows me everywhere -- and honestly, I don't mind one bit. She's a quiet little soul who asks for very little and gives so much in return. Cookie will make the most devoted companion for the right person. Her quirk? She loves sitting in my lap like she's always belonged there -- because she has. 💛 Personality Snapshot Describe in 3-5 words: Sweet, devoted, gentle, quiet Energy level: Low More people-oriented or independent? Very people-oriented -- she's a true shadow How do they handle new situations? She can be cautious at first, but warms up with patience and consistency 🐕 Social & Home Life How are they with people (adults/kids/new people)? Loving with her people; takes time to warm up to newcomers, including gentle kids How are they with other dogs? Still adjusting -- does best as the only dog for now Behavior when left alone or when guests visit: She's still settling in so we're still learning her alone time habits. She tends to be shy when guests visit, but we expect that to improve as she gains confidence 🎓 Training & Manners Potty trained? Yes! Crate trained? Yes -- sleeps in her crate at night without any issues Leash skills: Great on leash Commands known: Still learning 🌞 Daily Life Typical day with you: Quiet and calm -- loves being nearby and enjoys the sounds of nature outside Exercise needs: Low to moderate Favorite activities or toys: Lap time and following her foster mom around -- she's just starting to explore and we're still discovering what she loves 🌱 Growth Areas Still working on: Building confidence in new situations and around unfamiliar dogs What helps them succeed: Calm environments, patience, and a consistent routine 🏡 Ideal Home Only dog / With dog / Either: Only dog for now Good fit for apartment living?
