Dog Information and Overview: This "Pretty Girl" with the striking amber eyes has bounced back from rough times. PG was a stray rescued from a Tennessee shelter and is estimated to be around 3 years old. She was heartworm positive at a time when treatment was unavailable (due to a drug shortage in the US). She has now successfully completed treatment and has been given a clean bill of health. PG is ready to find her "forever home". After three months of being confined to a small kennel PG is now able to be an active dog again. She is enjoying being able to run around her foster family's fenced backyard. She loves being indoors with her foster family but will require daily exercise as she has proven to be an active dog. She loves to play ball and will even play quietly by herself with her toys. When left alone in the house she will need to be crated as she has chewed on her foster family's books and papers. In time this may not be necessary but a requirement when first adopted. Here are some brief notes from PG's foster family: She is good with people but gets excited. Takes treats very gently. She is very "soft" and can be submissive. She is a good eater. She is a howler, not a barker. Semi housebroken, no accidents when left inside for 3-4 hours however will chew inappropriately. Will counter surf if given a chance but is learning "no". She likes toys and playing. Loves to run and moves well. Jumps onto furniture well too! Loves, absolutely loves to ride in the car. If the door is open she jumps right in and will try to get in when the door is closed! Rides nicely in her crate. She appears to get along with other dogs but has had no exposure to young children. Finally, this pretty girl with the striking eyes loves to climb into laps, all 61 lbs. of her! And she is starting to lick…a new thing for her. She likes to shove her head under your chin and seems to enjoy the physical sensation of rubbing against you. Basic obedience training or a Canine Good Citizen course will be required so that she acquires better manners.
