Cookie Dough is the sweetest velcro pup! She becomes very attached to her person and wants to stay close at all times. She is incredibly loving and happiest when she can see or snuggle with her human. Cooke Dough is cautious and prefers to be picked up only when she feels comfortable and is ready. She will let you know when she needs space, so patience and respect for her boundaries are important as she continues learning to trust. She will sit on your lap when you sit on the couch! She is an excellent sleeping companion-she settles in, stays beside you and sleeps peacefully throughout the night. Her foster home is patiently helping her understand that the crate is a safe place and never a punishment. She is making progress. Cookie Dough loves toys and chew bones. She will play with a toy for a while. She likes the other dogs in her foster home and wants to play when they go outside. She will wrestle and wants to chase around the yard. Cookie Dough is a loving, loyal sweetheart who will thrive with a patient family that understands her need for reassurance, closeness and time to feel safe. If you're looking for an affectionate little shadow who will adore being by your side, she may be the prfect pup for ou! While Cookie Dough is good with adults, she isn't trusting enough of children. Since she was most likely not near them before, they make her nervous. Her best home would be one with no kids and most likely another dog to teach her further how to trust and feel safe.
