Fern (in foster)'s Story

Fern is a petite, 6 month old puppy with a big personality packed into a tiny 22 pound frame. She is an absolute sweetheart with a gentle, affectionate nature and an adorable set of quirks that make her impossible not to love.<br/><br/>Fern is crate trained and mostly potty trained, though like many young puppies she is still working on consistency and may have occasional accidents as she continues to learn. She is highly food motivated, which makes training both fun and effective. One of her most charming habits is the happy little spin she does when it is mealtime, a guaranteed way to brighten your day.<br/><br/>Fern has a soft, easygoing temperament and rarely engages in puppy nipping. She is still polishing her manners, including learning not to jump when excited, and will thrive with continued structure, patience, and positive reinforcement. She is eager to please and loves engaging with her people.<br/><br/>Because of her very small size, Fern would do best in a home where she will feel safe and secure. She is a sensitive, gentle puppy who can be overwhelmed by rough or overly assertive dogs, so calmer canine companions or a home where she can be the center of attention would be ideal.<br/><br/>While Ferns exact breed mix is unknown, her adopted siblings DNA test revealed a mix of pit bull, Japanese Chin, and bulldog, which certainly helps explain her compact size, expressive face, and affectionate personality.<br/><br/>Fern is a loving, joyful little pup who simply wants a home where she can relax, feel protected, and be cherished. With kindness, consistency, and plenty of treats, she will make a deeply devoted and delightful companion.<br/><br/>If you would like to learn more about Fern or schedule a meet and greet, please email adoptpetersburg@gmail.com.
