MEEKA

Meeka Craves Calm.<br/><br/>Meeka is a five year old, 9 lb Biewer Terrier with a quick mind and a quicker set of feet, attentive to every sound. She checks rooms, follows patterns, and keeps track of her people. It reads as vigilance as much as curiosity. She wants to know what is happening and where she fits in.<br/><br/>She is affectionate and enjoys being handled. She will lean in for contact, accept a cuddle, and then move on again. She does not linger for long stretches, but she consistently returns.<br/><br/>Meeka is social with other dogs and could live comfortably with one or even two steady companions.<br/><br/>She is less suited to chaotic environments. Outside, she is sensitive to noise. Traffic, trucks, leaf blowers and sudden sounds can startle her and quickly escalate her stress. She will do best in a quiet neighbourhood on a calm street where walks have low stimulation. Car rides are not her favourite outing.<br/><br/>In the home, she alerts to newcomers with barking and close circling until she has assessed the situation. With guidance and routine, this behaviour can be shaped. She is highly food motivated and learns quickly, but she has had limited structured training so far. She will need an experienced owner who can provide consistent, focused time to build her skills and confidence. Think short, regular sessions with clear expectations.<br/><br/>Meeka has been taught to use a buzzer to signal when she needs to go out. It is a useful tool but not fully reliable. When alone she will use a pee pad. Continued house training will be part of her transition into a new home. A secure fenced yard is imperative!<br/><br/>She is a sensitive, perceptive small dog who benefits from calm and a predictable routine. In the right environment, she is an engaging and rewarding companion who stays closely connected to her person.<br/><br/>She is sterilized, vaccinated, microchipped, and had a full dental in January 2026.<br/><br/>Best Fit: an experienced owner in a house, not an apartment or condo, with adult children only. A quiet setting with a fenced yard is important. No cats. Someone home a good part of the day. No frequent car rides.<br/><br/>If you have the time, the love and the dedication for Meeka please fill out an application: gerdysrescue.org/adoption-form/<br/><br/>No direct message inquiries, please.<br/>We adopt to Montreal and surrounding areas only.<br/>We will only respond to applicants who match the requirements.
