If you're not looking to adopt a dog right now, you might want to stop reading now, because Winnie Whimsy will have you reconsidering your stance! This scruffy perfection of a dog is a permanently happy little package with bright, sparkling eyes that find something wonderful about absolutely everyone she meets. Playful without being overwhelming, affectionate without being demanding, and endlessly entertaining, Winnie has a remarkable talent for making an ordinary afternoon feel like the rest of the world is nothing in comparison. You'll quickly understand why every person who spends time with her ends up completely charmed. Whether she's proudly bringing a toy back during fetch, rolling onto her back in hopeful anticipation of another belly rub, or looking up at you with that unmistakable sparkle in her eyes, Winnie has a way of making joy look wonderfully effortless.
Winnie is estimated to be around 1 year old and weighs 12 pounds. She appears to be a Terrier mix, though as with all rescue dogs, her breed and age are simply our best educated guess. She is currently thriving in a loving foster home where she has earned glowing reviews from everyone around her.
Ideal Home
Winnie's ideal family is simply one that enjoys life. A family who likes tossing a toy in the backyard, laughing at goofy moments, teaching fun tricks, heading out on adventures, and ending the day together on the couch. Winnie has plenty of playful energy, but she's equally talented at curling up beside you once the excitement settles down.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are noted in the description.
Training & Support
Winnie is both house and crate trained, perfectly food motivated, and approaches learning with the kind of enthusiasm that makes training feel less like work and more like a game. She loves making her people laugh and seems genuinely delighted anytime she gets to figure something out new. She is also wonderfully social. Winnie lives happily alongside a cat and regularly helps host doggies in her home as an assistant to an in-home dog-sitter. She doesn't simply tolerate cats, she respects and delights in them as companions. She would likely be thrilled to share her future home with another playful dog, a confident cat, or both.
