Description:
Holiday Cookie family. Oreo (mom) 2 pups Ginger Snap and Chocolate Chip and two other of their family Sugar Cookie and Snicker Doodle were all abandoned at a distant shelter when their previous elder guardian had health issues and had to move to a facility. They were all nervous but Oreo and puppy Sugar Cookie warmed up the fastest. Snicker Doodle is more timid and needs more time to adjust to feel safe. All are very sweet and once comfortable are friendly and enjoy attention. They had all their vet care vaccinations deworm Microchip and now relaxing and learning at their volunteer foster homes. Update from foster home: Sugar Cookie is very friendly and playful with Snickerdoodle around. She loves to attack squeaky toys. She is skittish around new situations or alone but also playful once comfortable. Both Sugar Cookie and Snicker Doodle are good dogs and love playing with each other. She would be happier being adopted with Snicker Doodle or have another friendly small dog at home. Need home with backyard. She needs training and time to learn to go on walks. Once outside of home she wants to run back inside. She adjusted and did well at home vacation boarding. Still not comfortable with walks yet with Harness. Need experienced person to do baby steps to learn and let her wear a harness and walk around yard then later see out front lawn area. She is not as treat motivated as Snicker Doodle.
