My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hear what Blue Bird's foster has to say about her!

Blue bird is adjusting to life in a city condo SO WELL! She completely understands the elevator and is not interested in long walks...just wants to pop outside to go to the bathroom quickly and maybe a walk of about 50 feet or so and then back to the comfort of a heated building! She greets everyone with a raised tail and even made some friends out of a couple of dogs that started off barking at her. What can I say, her charm is off the charts!

She has not had one accident in our house, so I think it's safe to assume she is completely potty trained!

She does somewhat of a strict bedtime of ~8:15pm! She never goes in her crate during the day, but at the same time every evening she goes in her crate and is ready for bed.

She is not on a strict schedule in terms of eating. We leave food in her bowl for her at all times and she eats when she's hungry, so not to worry if you're busy and can't be there at exact feeding times. Leave some food out and she'll handle the rest.

She's a big couch girlie and is happiest just hanging out there or in her bed, so if you're looking for a super sweet lovable dog to spend some cozy days with...Blue Bird may be your girl.
