My name is Abby and if you are looking for a companion couch potato, then your search is over! I am a very sweet girl with a short and smooth coat. I just love to sit with my humans in the recliner or couch; a regular love-bug!  I am not big at licking your face but I show my love in other ways! I will sleep in the big bed with my humans all throughout the night without any problems! I love to burrow under the covers or under a blanket. I am such a good and well-behaved girl. My foster mom says that I am housebroken even when it rains and also crate trained. I do best if I am taken outside as soon as I wake up in the morning, after eating and occasionally throughout the day and before going to bed for the night. Mom doesn’t feed me after the dinner hour so I do not have any accidents during the night. I walk well on the leash and tolerate being around other dogs and I just love kids. My previous owners loved to take me out on a kayak and I do well on boats. I am not bossy and just want to be by your side. My foster mom says that I am not a dominant female. Every once in a while, I like playing with a few soft toys, yet but my foster mom calls me a work-in-progress on that, but I do like playing with my fur siblings. I do not bark much and will “talk” a little when I want something. For the most part I am very quiet and reserved but I will bark some if someone comes to the door but I will stop barking once they come inside. I would be great being in an apartment or with a senior citizen and I am so easy to fall in love with that I would definitely make someone a great companion! I am 3 ½ years young, 17 pounds of love, spayed and microchipped. I am healthy, heartworm negative, UTD on all of my shots.
