Have you seen my ears? Take a look at them! They are amazing! They go in all different directions. Sometimes they are up, down, or one of each! The best part about my ears is that I love when people give me ear rubs, and I know how to ask politely for ear rubs, I put my head in the nearest person's lap!

One of my favorite things to do is to play with people and with other dogs. The best toys are the ones that squeak. But I sometimes play with them too much and need new ones that still have their stuffing inside. I don't understand how the stuffing goes from the inside to the outside. All I did was play with them a little bit. Making new friends is another one of my favorite things to do. I go to the dog park and meet all different people and dogs, and everyone says how pretty I am and how much they love my ears. I also get to race other dogs to the tennis balls that the people throw. I might be a stocky girl, but I'm fast as the wind! I win every race.

A lot of things are new to me, like riding in the car and walking on a leash. But don’t worry, I enjoy both of those things! I love walking through my quiet suburban neighborhood and smelling everything. I don’t pull much except when there is something really exciting, like a small animal or a dog I want to meet. Loud noises scare me a little, and sometimes I can be a little shy when meeting new people. But strangers don't stay strangers for long, after a few minutes and a few of my favorite treats we will be best friends forever.

I came to Homeward Trails with my four puppies, and everyone says that I was an "exceptional mamma" and took care of my puppies for a long time. My puppies found their forever families and now it's my turn. Do you want to be my forever family? Email my friend Joshua at JoshuaHTRescue@gmail.com to find out how.
