Hello, there! My name is Sarah and I came from a sad situation. My previous owner passed and I was surrendered to a shelter before being brought into rescue with Little Paws. I am a very sweet girl with gorgeous shiny black/brown coat but a bit overweight. I am great at sharing my hooman’s lap with the other dogs, but tend to be a bit vocal if someone walks by. I also tend to be more partial to my momma than my pop-pop, and I tend to not respond to my pop-pop, especially when my momma is around. I will bark if I hear something that I don’t recognize, but I calm down fairly quickly. My foster mom wishes that she could see me play with toys but I am a work in progress on that. I will chew on small bits of bully sticks or dehydrated meat, so my foster mom really thinks that I should be in an quiet household with someone willing to have time with me. A child screaming seems to bother me and I will run away and find some place quieter. I tend to leave furniture or other wooden/plastic things alone and love to lie in my doggie bed or hide behind the recliners. My foster mom has started seeing me interact with my fur-siblings but I will not sleep in the big bed with them at night. Nor will I sleep with my foster mom and dad in the big bed. A work-in-progress, I guess. I am pretty much 100% housebroken but all bets are off, if it’s raining outside.  I will use puppy pads or hospital pads, if I cannot be let outside. She says that I am such a good girl! ☺ I would be great being in an apartment or with someone who just wants to hang out. My foster mom says that even though I still need to lose some weight, I am still really easy to fall in love with. I am 6 years old, 18 pounds, spayed and microchipped. I am healthy, heartworm negative, UTD on all of my shots. Feed 1/3 cup kibble with unsalted peas or green beans on top.
