Toohie

My age is 4yrs and 1 month, I’m a very shy, sweet, gentle soul. It takes me a little while to warm to people, I tend to stand back until I feel comfortable. I can get startled by loud noises but as I slowly get used to everything and everyone, I relax and become affectionate and loving.
My foster Mum loves the way I sit next to her and snuggle. I give her a look that says I totally trust you and her heart melts.

I am crate trained and love to sleep in my crate at night with all my toys. During the day I am happy to sleep on a dog bed or doze on the floor. I am ok to left alone if I feel safe but not for extended periods of time. My foster Mum says sometimes I bark but stop as soon as I am redirected.

I need positive reinforcement with my training to help me to trust.

I just need a nice quiet home, where people are around, and I am not on my own too often. I have met a few dogs; however, I back off with my tail between my legs. I have tried being with other dogs, but I am much more suited to being an only dog.

I am house trained and follow directions like sit and stay quite well. I am not sure how I would go in a home with cats as I have never met a cat. However, I am fairly sure I would chase a cat and any other small animals.

I wouldn’t mind a home with children over 12 years however I am too timid and shy to be around younger children. Six-foot fencing is required to help me feel safe and secure
