BIOGRAPHY
This sweet soul is a mystery to us all. She arrived as an owner surrender in January 2024 she was just a baby and has spent all this time in the noisy giant shelter in Chicago. Don't get us wrong - we love our friends at Anti Cruelty .but 9 long months in a kennel and no yard to run can destroy a sweet dogs soul. So there she sat day after day, month after month, hoping for a person to see her beautiful soul that matches her beautiful coat. We can't even imagine - on our facebook page we posted a dog's perspective of the people walking by each day - she was just too high energy for any apartment dweller - thank goodness they called us to please find this special doggo a home in the country - away from the hustle and bustle and noise. She needed space to run and a person to spend time and teach her to grow into a wonderful dog.

Hobbies:
- She loves to go on long walks and is learning to run with a bicycle for exercise - she thinks this is great fun and after 9 months in dog prison, Snifaries are so special! To sniff, to stretch her legs and feel nature is a hobby she is wanting to share with you!
- Antler chewing is one of her very favorite activities - she is so very proud of getting new toys and spending hours on her dog bed
- She is very smart and would excel at Agility or obedience classes - she is a puppy and her breeding are high energy breeds that would be so much fun to channel into fun activities
- She has a great sweet personality and loves all- with training she will be a stunning dog with smarts too
- She is high energy and would do best with an active human of any age.
- She has some anxiety from the time in the shelter, we need to stress the 3 3 3 rule. 3 days, 3 weeks, 3 months Crate training needs to go slow with lots of rewards and no puppy should be left alone for long periods of time in a kennel. Puppies are Puppies
- From living 9 months in a kennel we are resetting her potty training. Her foster mom has a bell at the door and training is on- going, she will need a kind person to continue her training.
