03/18/2024 Foster Feedback: Bryce is a sweet, shy girl looking for a patient home to call her own. Although she has come a long way gaining confidence while she has been with me, trusting new people and going new places is still pretty scary for her. She is still working on potty training, but she does pretty good if let her out a handful of times a day. I do kennel her while I am at work and at night and she does well. I put puppy pads in the kennel and every once in a while she does still go on them before I get up or get home from work, but they have been mostly clean for a while now. Once in her new home, I feel like she will back track on the potty training for a bit while she gets used to everything again.
Bryce would benefit from having a confident dog friend or two in her new home. She looks to my dog a lot for guidance. I have also have watched a few dogs for friends while she has been with me and after slow intros they all got along great. Bryce does have a tendency to guard certain toys and beds from other dogs, so this is something to mindful of.
Bryce still needs work with being on a leash, she is fine with them until she gets to the end of it and then she freaks out. Because of this, Bryce's new home needs to have a fully fenced-in yard. She would not do well on a tie out. This also means that apartment life would not be for her.
I am unsure how she would do with kids, her reaction to all the new people that she has met has been the same, she keeps her distance and keeps a watchful on them. Any kids in her new home would need to be old enough to understand that Bryce needs to be approached slowly and on her terms.
Although Bryce is very much a work in progress, once she trusts you she is a very sweet silly girl who just wants to be near you.To view additional dogs available for adoption, please see our website: www.4luvofdog.org
