Sweet Potato is the epitome of a cuddle bug, a fluffy teddy bear who believes personal space is merely a suggestion. She's incredibly affectionate, wonderfully easygoing, and brings a sense of calm that feels like a deep exhale after a long day. Sweet Potato isn't one for chaos; she's all about being close to her people and soaking up love. She's a 57 lb GSD/Anatolian Shepherd mix, estimated to be around 6 years old, though as with any rescue, breed and age are not guaranteed. She possesses excellent house manners, walks nicely on a leash, and carries herself with a polite, no-nonsense demeanor.
Ideal Home
Sweet Potato would thrive in a home that appreciates quiet companionship and cozy cuddles. She has shown herself to be gentle and sweet with children of all ages, from toddlers to teenagers, and we believe she would be a wonderful addition to a family with kids. She is also very dog-friendly, enjoying the company of calm, easygoing dogs, though she can offer gentle corrections to overly persistent playmates. She has also shown herself to be respectful of cats.
