This 8 month old girl spent most of her life
gated off in a small kitchen and is now making up for lost time!
Baby is a dynamo! She loves to run very fast around and around the
big fenced play yard. She's also at the chewing stage and needs to
be monitored all the time or be put in a crate if people are not
around.
Baby definitely has a "Top
Dog" persona - if another cocker has a toy, she will run up
and grab it away - she even does this with big dogs like a German
shepherd!
She is full of puppy energy
and loves to wrestle with another high energy dog (she could go to
a home with a dog who would not challenge her top-dog
personality).
Baby is the perfect
example of why it is so important to socialize puppies to people,
other dogs and the world right from the start. She would
definitely benefit from puppy kindergarten and obedience training.
She is also not 100% housebroken.
Her
foster mom says that she's a good little cocker who loves to
cuddle "but she's a lot of work!" Right now, Baby has
two speeds, ON and OFF! She'll play hard for a while and then conk
out for a nap or early bedtime.
Baby
will need a big fenced yard and a patient owner who wants to do
obedience and/or agility training with a young, active dog. She'll
be a lot of fun in the right situation.
