Lorelai's Story

Lorelai is a bit of a "cat in a dog's body"Independent, observant, and a little particular. She may take some time to warm up but once she chooses you, she'll happily follow you from room to room like your own little shadow.<br/><br/>She also has some very cat-like habits. She loves sleeping in high places and, if given the choice, will absolutely pick the top of her crate over the inside. She enjoys affection, but prefers it at her pace, which makes building trust with her especially rewarding.<br/><br/>Lorelai has a nice balance of energy. She enjoys exploring, but she's just as happy to relax and hang out nearby. As a hound, she's also quite talkative and has a deep voice to prove it, so she may not be the best fit for an apartment living.<br/><br/>She does well with other dogs as long as they respect her space. She coexists nicely with appropriate introductions. We haven't tested her with cats yet, but she doesn't seem to have a strong prey drive.<br/><br/>She's still working on some basics. She's not fully housebroken yet and will need frequent potty breaks or crate time. She does settle in a crate after an initial barking protest (she likes to voice her opinions first!). She's also known to try to sneak out the door if given the chance, so a mindful home that can manage door safety is important.<br/><br/>Fun fact: Lorelai LOVES chickpeas!
