I will celebrate my 4th birthday on December 10th. I’m a three-year-old Bernedoodle owner-release. I weigh about 58 pounds and my foster mom says I’m beautiful. I'm a sweet, loyal, playful, bouncy girl and I really love being with my people. I get along with both big and small dogs and even did very well around the two cats in my foster home. My foster mom says she wouldn't leave me unattended with cats just yet, 'cause, I can be curious. And I should probably confess, I am rather close to counter height and that makes it very tempting. When the people are gone, I have done well in my open wire crate with the other dogs in the house. At night, my favorite place is snuggled up close to my person. I love a close cuddle. I can sleep in my crate if you are close by and I need to, but sleeping with my person is by far my preference. Even though I didn’t get the poodle coat, my foster mom says if I’m brushed thoroughly once in a while, I’m still a low shedding girl. And you know what, I am house-trained. I’m looking for a loving home where I can be an important part of the family, not left alone for long stretches. I'd love people who enjoy giving attention, sharing their time, and close cuddles. I'm sweet, I'm fun, I'm playful, and I have just a little bit of curious mischief. Hoping my forever family thinks that's part of my charm.
