Meet Sierra<br/><br/>Age: under a year old (approximately 7 to 8 months)<br/><br/>Spayed Female<br/><br/>Weight: 30 to 40 pounds and growing a bit more<br/><br/>Breed: Shepard mix.<br/><br/>We are still working on House Training, but she learned the doggy door really fast and she loves the easy access to outside.<br/><br/>Sierra is a bit of a nervous Nellie and is still gaining confidence in herself and trust with others. She’s a lovely girl who needs a patient, loving home to help her continue to shine her brightest.<br/><br/>I have not seen her around Children yet, but she is a sweet little girl.<br/><br/>When Left Alone how does she react: well she has yet to be alone, When I leave the house she is with my 2 big dogs in a confined space, and she is always asking them to play.<br/><br/>How does she Play With Other Dogs: so far she is Happy go lucky with my dogs, I have only had her a week but she is willing to take instruction from my dogs.<br/><br/>Meeting New People: so far that has been a little shut down/nervous but willing meet, however, she has not been in a large group yet.<br/><br/>Can She be Left Alone: She seems Ok when I leave, and I have been away for 5 hours, but again she has always had other dogs around.<br/><br/>How Long in Crate: currently she is sleeping in a crate next to my bed and she can remain there for 8 hours easy, if you provide toys to chew, as her sleep cycle is about 3 hours. She did have potty accidents the first 2 nights, but by the 3 night she was happy to be safe in the crate and willing wait all night.<br/><br/>When she is awake she will chew on a toy for about 25-30 minutes then role over a sleeps again. It took Sierra about 3 days to learn the crate is SAFE. If there is any disruption in the house she runs to the crate.<br/><br/>With Cats: she has seen my cat but does not show interest unless my cat is acting up.<br/><br/>Energy Level: is Medium to High,<br/><br/>Leash: we are still learning the leash and going for walks. Again a little nervous outside the fence, on the street, always looking to hide when noises start.<br/><br/>Car Rides: she has only been in a crate so far in the car, she was nervous but settled down for the ride.<br/><br/>Training: we have only done minimal training so far as we have been doing exposure training first behavior training second.<br/><br/>Play: so far she has teased my dogs to get them to play, and when they are done and go lay down, she will find a chew toy and settle down with that about 30 minutes.<br/><br/><br/>Food: she is currently eating a cup of dry food with a topper of 2 tablespoons of wet morning and night.<br/><br/>She has learned a few Words: Outside/Breakfast/Dinner. I actually take them outside at night before bed so “go potty” is known.<br/><br/><br/>Sierra will make someone a loving companion, once she feels safe. She would love to be a lap dog but seems to understands that it is not always possible.<br/><br/>If interested, we recommend submitting an adoption application at: www.foothilldogrescue.org<br/><br/>This dog will be available at Saturday’s adoption event at our rescue.
