Hello, my name is Shirley! I'm a small but mighty gal with striking eyes that change color from amber to blue-green depending on the light, and adorable white-tipped paws. My sister Laverne and I were rescued from a tough situation in southern Minnesota and have since been showered with love in our foster home. I'm working hard on potty training and am proud to say I can ring a bell to let you know I need to go out! I also do wonderfully in my kennel, sleeping soundly with cozy blankets and classical music. I'm learning "sit" and "stay," though my excitement sometimes gets the best of me! I enjoy playing with other puppies and absolutely love food and affection from my humans. I live with my 12-year-old human sister and 14-year-old human brother, and I think they adore me just as much as I adore them! I've also met some tiny humans and get excited to greet them. I haven't met any cats yet. My doggy siblings include Laverne (my sister), Blanche (a calm 6-year-old Pitbull/Boxer mix), and Stanley (a playful 3-year-old Weimaraner/Pitbull mix). I tend to be more dominant with Laverne and more submissive with Blanche and Stanley. We all love to play with toys, tug-of-war, and chase tennis balls, and I especially love cuddling with any dog or human who will let me! I'm a perfect mix of spunk, sass, play, and love, and I especially enjoy cuddling up to my human's neck. My dream day involves lots of time with my human – eating, napping, playing, and more eating! Like my namesake, Shirley from "Laverne and Shirley," I'm sweet but can stand up for myself. I love bones and tennis balls, but honestly, any toy is great! I enjoy a mix of cuddles and snoozes, with a healthy emphasis on beauty sleep. My tail wags the hardest when my humans come home or when food is involved – I might even bark to speed things up!
