Hi, my name is Cecelia! I'm about 3 years old and weigh around 37 lbs. I was adopted from Mostly Mutts and then returned after about nine months. When I came back, I was very shut down and scared, which was quite a change from how I was before. I was pretty stressed at the shelter, but I'm now in a foster home and doing wonderfully! I'm learning to feel safe and work through my fear of new people. I'm looking for someone who will be patient and trust that I'll blossom once I really get to know you.
Ideal Home
I would love to be your only dog, as I tend to guard my person. However, I can enjoy walks or even a day trip alongside another dog. I do play with a very submissive dog in my foster home, but my foster watches us closely. Cats are unknown. Mostly Mutts recommends calmer kids 15 and older due to my past fear challenges with new people, so let's meet! I'd also benefit from a fenced yard. I am looking for someone or a couple that doesn't have a lot of company. If visitors do come over, I am happy to go to my kennel so you can visit, and I don't have to be a part of it, as I enjoy my quiet time too.
Ongoing Health
I am current on vaccinations, micro-chipped, and spayed.
Training & Support
I'm in the Mostly Mutts University training program and have already mastered the sit, stay, come, leave it, and drop it commands, and I look forward to learning more! Let's continue my training together with the free lifetime training classes that Mostly Mutts offers for all their adopted dogs! My crate manners are great, and my potty manners have been good at Mostly Mutts and wonderful in my foster home. My foster mommy says I am an easy housemate for someone that works. I was labeled high energy from my previous home, but my foster family says I am the perfect housemate. My energy level is 4-6. I did have stranger danger challenges at first, mainly with men, but once I truly trust you, man or woman, I will crawl in your lap because I think I am a lap dog! Until I trust you, reaching over my head or grabbing at me, or grabbing my collar scares me, so a snap is my way of warning. Please give me time to come to you and don't rush me.
