Hope is approximately 6-9 months old and very much a puppy. She just came to Seattle from Texas where she was a stray until some kind rescue folks managed to catch her and keep her safe. She is super sweet and gentle and willing to learn. In just 3 days she has learned to sit! She loves people and other dogs and doesn't want to be left alone in a room without them. She is crate trained and happily runs to her crate to receive a treat when you're ready to go out or to bed. She sleeps all night without a sound and can go several hours alone in her crate during the day. She's a happy go lucky puppy with tons of love to give and loves to snuggle once she's played her wiggles out! She will need to attend puppy class and lots of time and attention. Homes with fences are best for puppies so they have a safe place to play with you whilst they run and play. Are you the perfect family for her??
