ShelsNDawgs - A Different Kind of Dog Rescue

Flo

(URGENT - NEEDS A HOME BEEN IN FOSTER FOR JUST OVER A MONTH WITH LITTLE INTEREST!!)

Hi, my name is Flo, and I'm a 10 month old female hound mix. I am UTD on my vaccines, spayed, and heart worm negative. I was rescued by the F.A.R.M, from a local shelter where I was scheduled to be put to sleep, over a month ago. My first owners turned me in to the shelter when it turned out I wasn't the little beagle they thought I was! I am definitely a hound of some sort, but NOT beagle! I am much taller and leaner than a beagle, and I weigh about 35 - 40 pounds. I love to run and play, and I'm doing well with the other dogs here at daycare. I am crate trained and housebroken, and I am learning basic obedience here as well. I do still have some puppy tendencies, as technically I am still a puppy! I do chew, but if you provide me with some chew bones, kongs, and rope toys; I should pass through this typical puppy stage very well.

My foster mom tells me that I'm very lucky to have come here to BFFE, as its a great place for me to make friends, socialize with other dogs, and learn how to be a dog. My first family kept me crated for most of the day, and I was only let out for potty breaks, so I'm finding this experience to be tons of fun! I am doing very well in the obedience classes I am taking here. I am learning to walk nicely on a leash, to sit, and lie down. I am super smart however, and I am learning very quickly, and I hope to find my forever home quickly. Nothing about my 10 months of life so far has been considered normal. I have been to the shelter twice, both times through no fault of my own. I had very little socialization in my first home and not much training either. I have come a long way here at daycare, and am finding this world a fun place to be. Now if only I had my very own lap to curl up on for lovies my world would be perfect.
