Tootsie is a gentle and warm-hearted girl who easily captures the hearts of everyone she meets. She doesn't demand attention but rather draws you in with her calm and steady presence, making her a delightful companion. Tootsie is an approximately 8-year-old, 60 lb pittie mix who has proven to be wonderfully mannered and affectionate in her foster home. She is fully potty trained, crate trained, and respectful of her surroundings, with no destructive behaviors. Tootsie settles beautifully, sleeps through the night, and can be left alone for short periods without issue. She is a true lap dog at heart, especially if blankets are involved, and her brand is all about cozy snuggles.
Ideal Home
Tootsie enjoys a slower pace of life and would thrive in a home that appreciates leisurely strolls and quiet companionship. While she enjoys her yard for exploring and sunbathing, be aware of her passion for chasing lizards. She coexists beautifully with other dogs and would enjoy a calm, respectful canine friend, but her favorite companions are people.
