Etsy Bestie Your Lovey Dovey Bestie

Etsy Bestie is the absolute definition of perfection! She's an incredibly sweet and loving girl who wants to be everyone's best friend. She adores everyone she meets and melts into you whenever she gets the chance. Etsy has a heart of gold and radiates happiness and joy wherever she goes. You can't help but smile when you're around her, especially when she looks up at you with those gorgeous big brown puppy-dog eyes and her sweet, innocent grin.

Etsy is believed to be a Cattle dog/pittie mix, approximately 2 years old and weighs 52 lbs. She is a rescue dog, and with any rescue, breed and age can be a mystery.

She is a hoot and her tail never stops wagging. She would make a great family dog and has been around kids as young as 5 years old. Etsy was not phased by the running, jumping, screaming, or even when a little girl started doing cartwheels. She took treats gently from her and even allowed the girl to put silly pom-poms on her head. When a whole bowl of popcorn was spilled, Etsy waited patiently while they cleaned everything up and was so grateful once she was rewarded. She will fill your life with laughter and smiles. Though Etsy is a love bug, she can be a little shy at first with new people and in new environments. It doesn't take long for her to open up, and within minutes, she's giving you all the kisses and snuggling close.

Etsy is dog-friendly and has been around a variety of dogs with different personalities. She's more of a relaxed hangout type of girl who prefers attention from people. She is happy to be around dogs that have a cool, calm, and collected tempo, but she does enjoy occasional play bows and light-hearted games of chase. In a home, she would do best with a medium-energy male dog that enjoys the company of other dogs but isn't looking for a 24/7 playmate. She does not need another dog in the home, as she has enough love to give for three dogs combined! Etsy would also do best in a home with no cats, as she was a little too interested in the resident cat.

Ideal Home

Etsy will thrive with a semi-active family that enjoys frequent outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, going to the beach, or casual play in the yard. A family or individual who appreciates nature and is ready to explore parks, trails, or snowy landscapes would be perfect. While she loves the great outdoors, Etsy is also an affectionate gal at home and loves to bury her head into you for love. She has the potential to thrive in an apartment with proper exercise and socialization, and would also do great in a home with a backyard.

Ongoing Health

No specific health concerns were mentioned in the listing.

Training & Support

Etsy is ready and eager to learn! She loves treats and already knows basic commands like "sit" and "down." She is fairly easy to walk on a leash, only pulling occasionally towards interesting smells. She responds well to correction and wants to please her people. Etsy has wonderful house manners and is crate and potty trained.
