About Mother Goose

Mother Goose came to us with her puppies when they were just a week old. Now that her babies are weaned, this sweet mama is ready to leave motherhood behind and start her new life free from puppy duties. She can be a little apprehensive when meeting new people, but once she warms up, expect lots of love. Mother Goose adores giving kisses and loves hugs, so a home without small children is recommended, as she can be quite enthusiastic in her affection. This playful girl is a huge fan of toys; if she sees one, she's ready to engage. She's currently refreshing her leash manners and is re-adapting to potty training, though she initially seemed house-trained. Consistency and patience will go a long way in helping her readjust. When Mother Goose first arrived, she showed some resource guarding behavior around food due to her previous circumstances. It’s important for her future family to provide a calm feeding routine and to use positive reinforcement as they work through this together. Now it's Mother Goose's turn to be spoiled! She needs a loving, patient family who will provide her with toys, hugs, and the time she needs to settle in. She's spayed, fully vaccinated, pending a microchip, and heartworm test.
