Etsy Bestie is an absolute joy and wants to be everyone's best friend! She is a 2-year-old Cattle dog/Pittie mix, weighing around 52 lbs, who radiates happiness and melts into you whenever she gets the chance. With her heart of gold and those gorgeous puppy-dog eyes, she'll have you smiling in no time. She's been around children as young as 5 and handled their energy with grace, even letting a little girl put pom-poms on her head! Etsy is a well-behaved girl who patiently waits for instructions, especially when treats are involved. While she can be a little shy in new places, she opens up quickly and showers you with kisses and snuggles.
Ideal Home
Etsy would thrive with a semi-active family who enjoys outdoor adventures like hiking and camping, or just relaxing in the yard. She can adapt to apartment living with enough exercise and socialization, or a home with a backyard. She is looking for a canine companion who is a medium-energy male dog that enjoys casual play and doesn't require constant interaction. She would also do well as the only dog in the home. She does not do well with cats.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned in the listing. She is up-to-date on all vetting, which includes DAPP vaccine with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad-spectrum deworming treatments, flea prevention, a 12-month heartworm preventative injectable, and a heartworm test.
Training & Support
Etsy is eager to learn and already knows "sit" and "down." She walks well on a leash, only pulling occasionally towards interesting smells. She is house-trained and crate-trained.
