About Bertha

Bertha came to us from an animal shelter in Alabama. She is a young puppy with plenty of potential, and while she might be shy at first, her adorable personality shines once she feels comfortable. Having another dog around tends to help her open up. With a medium energy level, Bertha enjoys playing with her canine friends and loves other puppies. She's playful but knows how to unwind after some fun. As a young pup, Bertha is still mastering the basics and will benefit from guidance with housetraining, crate training, and leash walking. Although she hasn’t been on a leash yet, she rides well in the car while crated. She has not indicated separation anxiety or guarding behaviors over food or toys. Though she hasn't interacted with children yet, her sweet nature makes her a great candidate for families with respectful kids. Her interactions with cats remain unknown. Bertha is at an age where consistent training, socialization, and routines are vital. A patient adopter will help her build confidence and provide the nurturing environment she needs to thrive as a wonderful family companion. Click apply to start the adoption process.
