Outside, Ramsey is all about sunbathing and winding down in a quiet patch of light. She gets along well with her siblings and even her foster's dog, though she is still learning the ropes when it comes to resource guarding with other dogs, especially when food or toys are around. That doesn't extend to people; she's gentle with humans and calms down quickly if you step in. Ramsey is getting the hang of house training.
