Poppy is a 7 year old purebred girl who is bonded with Potato. Both pups are extremely well behaved, sweet dogs. Poppy is a great listener and a snuggly couch buddy. Sadly, their owner passed away and the family could not keep both dogs, so now they are looking for a home where they can be together and share all their love with a new family.

Personality

Poppy is a spunky little girl with the softest fur. Her foster mama says she loves the long hair on her ears and tail. Poppy will stare at you and make you melt. She loves to play with toys and play fetch, but mostly she has the best time tearing them apart. She is getting better at following commands so definitely even more trainable.

Environment

Both are crate trained and as long as they are on a schedule, they are house trained too! You’ll need to be aware that neither of them signals to go outside. Occasionally Poppy will sit at the door but unless you see her, she won't vocalize. Since they are both crate trained this pair doesn’t require work from home so long as they are crated. Poppy barks when the doorbell rings or someone comes into the house, but will stop on command, and should be ok in a home with shared walls.  They are great on walkies, but they do love to bark at people when they walk by. Quieter walking routes may be a bit more peaceful. 

Pets & People

Poppy is great with people of all ages. She’s a total snuggle bug when she’s done playing and has endless love to give. Both Poppy and Potato are so docile and love other dogs. They are great with all the foster’s own dogs—even the brand new 10 week old puppy! They don't even react when she is nipping at them for attention. Although they are untested with cats, but judging by their amenable temperament, and lack of displayed prey drive they would likely be ok. Neither Poppy nor Potato are food aggressive and will actually move away from their food and allow another dog in.

Location
