Backstory: Miss Poppy was dumped at a gas station as a puppy, but the family that found her could not keep her as she grew.

Additional info: Miss Poppy is very sweet and always up for an adventure. She is happy to meet new people, though she tends to jump up a bit. She loves to play fetch, but hasn’t perfected bringing back the ball yet. For being young, she is very smart about what can be chewed on or not. She has never chewed on anything inappropriate. We have a basket of beef bones and dog toys that she chooses from and quietly goes off to play. She has not shown any aggression with her toys either. She barks when she needs to be let out to potty. She will sleep comfortably in her crate, but has also napped quietly on the couch. She will go into her crate at mealtime. She does not handle small, yappy dogs barking at her very well and they make her anxious.
