Artie is a 3-year-old, spayed female Terrier mix weighing 32 pounds, who is bursting with personality and ready for her next adventure! This energetic and intelligent girl absolutely adores people and greets everyone with boundless enthusiasm and a wagging tail. Artie loves to play fetch, zoom around with her toys, and is always up for a good romp in the yard. She's a cuddler too, happy to snuggle up after a play session. Artie is house-trained and crate-trained, settling in nicely when left alone, though she's a curious girl who enjoys exploring, so continued crate use when unsupervised is recommended. She's also a great car rider and navigates stairs like a pro.
Ideal Home
Artie would thrive in an active home that enjoys outdoor activities and playtime. She has done well with large dogs (50-100 lbs) and would likely enjoy a canine companion, though slow introductions are key. A yard or open space for her to run would be a fantastic bonus. While Artie hasn't been around cats or children, her friendly nature suggests she could adapt well with proper introductions. She's looking for a patient family ready to continue her training, especially in helping her learn to settle calmly and share her toys more comfortably.
Ongoing Health
Artie is spayed and up-to-date on vaccinations.
Training & Support
Artie can be a little protective of her toys initially but quickly backs off and has never escalated past that. She also recognizes when another dog is done playing. On leash, she may bark or pull when she sees other dogs, so continued training will help her polish these manners. She should continue to be crated when left alone due to her curious nature.
