Please contact my foster parent by email for information about adopting me.

My foster parents say I'm an incredibly sweet and smart girl, and I think they're right! I love being right in the middle of everything, following my people around and investigating whatever you're up to. I just want to be a part of your life!

I am so eager to please! If you like playing clicker training games, I'm your dog. I learn new things super fast and would be a great partner for dog sports, trick training, or advanced obedience. I catch on quick!

I'm already a pro at "sit"—I'll do it anywhere! I also know "down," and we're working on recall.

My foster parents were amazed when I mastered the "place" command (go to my mat or bed) in just about five minutes.


I enjoy the company of other dogs, though sometimes I get a little too excited when I first see them. I'm not a dominant dog, and I totally respect boundaries; I'm not possessive at all, and I back off when other dogs ask me to. Big news: I also respect the cats! They used to be so tempting to chase, but now I leave them alone.

Even though I'm an active dog, I can also chill for long stretches of time! I'd be a great work-from-home partner, and I'll let you sleep through the night without raising a fuss. I am crate trained and settle right down. I've surprised my foster parents with how quickly I've learned and how much love I have to give!
