A little about them

Fern is a sweet, energetic girl with a big personality and a love for life. She enjoys fetch, toys, backyard play, barking at squirrels, treats, Kongs, and being close to her people. After the fun, she loves to snuggle and be part of whatever her family is doing.

Ideal Home

Fern would thrive with an active family that offers:

  • A fenced-in yard
  • Outdoor activities, daily exercise, and plenty of play
  • Mental stimulation and enrichment
  • Consistency, structure, routine, and patience
  • Positive-reinforcement training

Fern has done well with kids. She takes treats respectfully from people, but her resource guarding with other dogs must be understood and respectfully managed. Another dog may be possible with slow introductions, time, patience, training, and appropriate management as the relationship develops.

Ongoing Health

No medical conditions or health testing are reported for Fern.

Training & Support

Fern is crate trained and potty trained. She is currently learning through positive-reinforcement training with Trainer Sarah, and her family should be willing to continue helping her learn and grow.
