I am Shireen and I am about 3 years old and 8 pounds. I am a sweet pup who blooms with a little lovin'!

 

I’ve really begun to enjoy my days as part of a loving family.

Because I'm so soft, it's easy to give me love! I can be a little wary when meeting strangers, but quickly warm up and love to be pet and loved.

I’m enjoying small soft toys, squeaky toys and bully sticks. I love to frolic outside as well.

Playing with dogs around my size is a lot of fun. Another dog in the home to play with would be the bees knees. I am incredibly people oriented, so it's possible that if my human is home a lot, I could be OK as an only dog. I just want to be around the people and fur friends I love! 

I could live a life without small children; their fast movements and loud noises confuse me. I would probably be OK with calm and respectful children over 5 years old though. 

I am doing better with loud noises and commotion though. I am getting used to it knowing that I’ll be OK so I have less fear.

I want to make my person happy, so am working hard on my house training

and it’s going well. I am making progress. 

Sometimes it's tricky for me, because I can smell where other dogs have had accidents in the past and it makes it confusing to know the right place. I do go to the bathroom when we go outside, so I definitely understand! I'll get there!

I’m doing pretty well with crate training; I can go all night and I rarely have accidents when I am in the crate.

I am working on commands for ‘wait’, ‘leave it’, ‘outside’ and ‘inside’. I’m one smart cookie and love the challenge of puzzle games. Besides I need activities to keep me from nuisance barking ,barking when my foster mom comes home or barking to get her attention. I admit it;  I do it!

I will hopefully work on leash training soon. We are taking it slow, because the leash kind of makes me nervous and I'm not sure what to do with it quite yet.  A little time and patience will go a long way for me!  

I just know I’ll love to go for walks one day!

I am such a wonderful pup and I cannot wait to meet you and warm your heart.

Many of our dogs are rescued from commercial breeders where they spent their lives getting comfort from their canine friends.  In turn, most require another companion dog in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog, and do not currently have a dog residing with you, please understand that your home might not be the right fit for many of our dogs.
