Sugar Plum gets along well with dogs of all sizes, making her a great companion for any dog-loving family. With a high energy level, she needs an active home where she can enjoy regular walks and outdoor activities. On a leash, she exhibits good behavior and enjoys car rides.

While she’s friendly with adults, her sweet nature suggests she would likely be a good match for families with respectful kids, despite not having been around them much. Living in a shelter has made it tough to determine if she is fully housetrained, but she has kept her kennel tidy, which is a promising sign.

She thrives on attention and social interaction, making her an ideal candidate for an adopter willing to provide regular exercise, structure, and ongoing training.
