A volunteer writes: So sweet and gentle, Beverly quietly waits in her kennel for a walk. Easily leashed we head outside where she uses the ‘facilities’ immediately indicating she might be housetrained. She’s gorgeously, gleamingly brindle, so petite and the perfect weight for her size. Bev can be shy, tucking her tail as we make friends, and then rolling in and over for a belly rub, nudging my hand if I stop stroking her. Closing her eyes in belly rub bliss, Bev could have lain there all day I’m sure. Showing off her sit for treats before I ask her to, she takes them nicely and then does a few little hops on leash wanting to play. Unfortunately we could only play on leash for a minute but we take what we can get. Bev is a doll, so gentle and easy, willing to make new friends if only they’ll rub her sweet belly! Trust me, you’ll want to! At an estimated 1 year old, there’s a part of her that still puppy like in her abandon, and other parts that are sophisticated beyond her years. What a perfect combination! Throw in how beautiful she is, and she’s the girl you’ll want by your side, now and forever. Come meet her and see for yourself.
PLAY GROUP NOTES :
5/25: When introduced off leash to the male greeter dog, Beverly offers very brief greeting, approaching and sniffing with a neutral body. She does not seek further interaction and instead begins to anxiously pace the perimeter of the pen while seeking an exit.
5/26: Beverly will offer a brief greeting and then wander the pen. She will offer a correction when the male dogs attempts to mount her.
