ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:

Notes from the foster:

Baby Girl "BG" is a really sweet happy dog. She loves everyone in the family (husband, 2 teens and myself). It turns out she is a HUGE ball dog- not sure if that is just innate or fostered by her previous owner? She will fetch and bring it back and drop it, she is also really good at catching things in the air (mostly stuffed animal dog toys!). She LOVES attention and being pet. She has been very curious about things on walks- other people, dogs out walking with their people, but she seems like she is really adjusting pretty easily to what is 'normal' here.

She hasn't met any little kids yet though we saw one on a tricycle on a walk and she was not concerned. I think she would be fine, the only concern would be that she does jump on people when she is excited/wants attention so she needs to work on that. Though, she seems pretty smart, I wouldn't be shocked if she learned after one jump that jumping on a small person does not end well for anyone 😂. She will bark her guard dog bark if a noise wakes her up unexpectedly, or someone is at the door, but she will just run over and sniff whoever comes in (it has only been our family so far), realize she knows them, and get excited for pets.
