She is beginning to show interest in toys, pouncing on them playfully, as she becomes more comfortable,<br/>Easygoing and redirectable: Karlita takes treats gently through she isn’t particularly interested in them. She sometimes barks at dogs nearby but can be easily redirected with a squeaky toy.<br/><br/>Karlita would thrive with patient adopters who can give her time to decompress. She would do best as a solo dog in the home with the occasional doggie friends.
