She may be a bit shy when meeting new faces but warms up quickly, soaking up attention once she's comfortable. While she hasn't met young children yet, her typical puppy enthusiasm means supervision during playtime will help her grow. This playful pup thrives in the company of other dogs and enjoys the company of her foster home's younger pups.

Lainey is about 90% potty trained, having mastered her bathroom skills like a champ, and shows promise as she navigates leash training. She’s eager to please and learns quickly, so patience will aid her development into a well-mannered companion. One of her little quirks?
