i'm so pretty. . . Oh so pretty. . . A pretty girl needs a pretty name so i was christened isabella, though i answer to 'izzy'. I'm full of personality and affection and i love to entertain you. . . Do you like the picture of me all curled up in the box? i'll do anything to make you smile. Don't be fooled by my ladylike looks - it's true, i'm a sweetheart but underneath the unusual red and cream coloured fur and behind the golden eyes lies a real little livewire. I'm a delicious contradiction - a gorgeous tomboy! i'll need excellent fencing because i like to try and outsmart you by jumping over the fence so i can go adventuring. I'm an athletic little girl and long to find my forever home with a strong pack leader who is really active. I'm sharp as a tack and i aim to please - i don't like being in trouble so will go out of my way to make you happy. I love to learn new things and am very responsive. It doesn't take me long to work out what you want me to do and praise makes me a very happy dog - tell me i'm a good girl over and over and i'll do anything for you! i walk well on the lead and i can sit, stay and shake hands. Huskies are known for their intelligence and i'm no exception! i just know that i'll reach my full potential in a home that appreciates and has experience with my breed. Before coming to bfr, i didn't get to socialise with other dogs and was never taught how to share and i ended up running away and being put in the pound. Now i'm living in a pack at my foster mum's place and they are all teaching me the finer details of being a good pack member. I'd really like to go to a home with a dog who is bigger and older than me so i have someone to look up to. I've been a little possessive about my food so i'm working on that and i'm also making progress with housetraining. It's really important to me that i master this because i love nothing more than hanging out with my people inside. I like cats, birds and guinea pigs a little bit too much though. . . I haven't been close enough to taste any but they sure do smell delicious. . . I have so much love to give. . . I adore humans of all ages and especially enjoy the company of children. All you have to do is play with me and you will have made a lifelong friend. I've heard my breed accused of being aloof, but uh-uh, not me! i'm super-affectionate and very cuddly. I've learned that other dogs can be my friends and it makes me very happy to socialise with them. If you think you and i would be a good team, please contact marnie on marnie. Bfr@gmail. Com
