Please don’t let my age fool you! I am an active, playful girl. I have met many dogs without an issue and the first time I made it into the house – onto the couch was my first destination. I also love to chew on bones. I have a great appetite and no issue with a human by my food bowl or touching me during eating. I’m just pretty happy to have company and would prefer to have a family who wants to include me in their lives and not tied up outside. One of my great skills that I am quite proud of (but my foster mommy says it’s not nice) is that I can climb 5 foot fences. I’m working on 6 foot but haven’t succeeded because mom tricked me with a wobbly fence. So I suppose if you don’t me following you to work I don’t believe I can scale a privacy fence.
Good with kids, dogs, not sure about cats, didn’t look at the chickens and ignores the pig next door.
Walks good on a leash.

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
