Hi! My name is Chica and I am from Arkansas.
Update from Chica's temp foster:
I busted out Chica for a long weekend and WOW is she amazing!! She is a couch queen, bed snuggling, fetching, trick learning, porch swing sittin, amazing leash walker, PURE LOVING girl!
Kennel is still a work in progress, however being able to talk to her through the camera helped!!
I'm gonna do a trial this weekend of putting her in the kennel, but leaving the door cracked. I truly feel like I'll be able to trust her 100% where she doesn't even need to go in the kennel.
She does not hesitate to go in the kennel, she'll even go lay in the kennel when we're in the room next-door doing laundry, she'll go down there just to hang out and lay down. She will be on the couch and we can be out of sight and she doesn't get anxious! I can't wait to see how much progress we make this weekend, all of this was within 24 hours!
Other dogs, loud noises, squirrels, and rabbits don't seem to really phase her. I have a 14-year-old Puggle mix who is old crabby and stuck in her way, and Chica is not phased.
She is one of the most trusting and loving dogs I've ever met/fostered!
From her foster: Chica is a sweet little girl who loves to curl up in your arms to snuggle on the couch. She is very intelligent and is quick to pick up new commands. She will beg for your attention when she really wants it. We have one resident dog and two resident cats, she is fine with both. She doesn't bother the cats too much and sometimes will be curious about them, but for the most part, she doesn't acknowledge them. She is currently being kenneled during the day while we are at work and during the night sleeps in her own queen bed with a baby gate at the door. We do not know how she is with small children as we do not have any in our home.
Chica has separation anxiety issues and is currently on medication to assist with her anxiety. While we have no problems getting her into the kennel (for the most part she puts herself in the kennel), once we start to leave the house is when she starts to panic by wailing, howling, and barking. She did escape her previous kennel a couple of times and we now have her in a much more durable kennel. Chica has not escaped the new kennel. She is also experiencing separation anxiety when we are out in the yard and she is inside.
