Peppermint Patty - pending adoption Mixed Breed Saskatoon, SK

Meet Peppermint Patty. She was born around Dec 3rd and is a mixed breed. Patty is a happy, curious and loving puppy. She will be a medium to large dog when full grown.
Patty loves to play. So far, that is the only time that she barks – when she’s playing with her foster brother or trying to get him to play. Patty is more energetic than the foster. Her zoomies resemble the cartoons where they run along/up the wall since she’s often jumped onto the back of the couch and zoomed along it, then jumps off to do another circuit.

She has learned sit, paw, and belly (she lays on her back for belly rubs – it’s probably her favourite ‘trick’. She uses the doggy doorbells to notify of when she needs the potty and to come back inside. She also knows Hustle (for recall), That’s Enough (for settling), Touch (to get her attention), and her name. She’s almost got: go to your room (kennel) and bedtime. She is working on wait, down, off, give, bring, and leave it/take it. But, did I mention she’s smart? She’ll learn quickly.
If you are doing something new or interesting, Patty usually has a curious expression on her face and a head tilt watching to see what’s happening. Getting her mental and physical activity will be important for her and for you (she can get dramatic when she’s bored). For mental stimulation, she enjoys playing: Find It. (Hide treats and she sniffs around to find them – inside or outside). She’s learning Choose It (a treat in one hand and she guesses which one). For physical, she likes the balmy weather and will play outside or sit on the deck and survey the world with small little bursts of energy around the yard. Patty has been lucky enough to be taken on walks by many people and they all agree that she is excellent on the leash. She stays either behind or beside her foster brother, or right next to you. She doesn’t pull on the leash.

Patty does well in a kennel.
Patty really wants to find her furever home and be with them for her furever, so she does many things to keep healthy. She allows her ears to be inspected and cleaned, for her nails to be dremeled (with sufficient licking mat/incentive) and to apply paw balm, and she also likes getting brushed – hair AND teeth. Although, she does prefer the dental treats over teeth brushing, she still likes it.
Patty will make a great addition to any family - big or small with another dog or not. If she is the only dog, she will not need to put up with any jealousy and can bask being the centre of attention! However, Patty is very social dog and it would be nice for her to continue to have lots of dog friends and people ones. Patty is a bit timid when meeting new dogs and takes a bit to feel comfortable and to really start playing, but she is watching for an opportunity from the moment they meet.
