Sugar's Story

Sugar is as sweet as her name :) She came from a home where she was well-loved, but she nipped a stranger and had to be rehomed. She has offered no nips in her foster home or to strangers who have visited. In her foster home she's known as Miss Muffet. No spiders in her garden, though, just love and care!<br/><br/>With a birthdate of Nov. 30, 2024, Sugar is fully grown and weighs about 10 lb.<br/><br/>Sugar ignores the cats in her foster home and is tolerant of the dogs. She is a little intimidated by the big dogs, but as she learns to predict their behavior she is becoming comfortable with their playing. She doesn't yet want to join in, but lays down out of their way to watch.<br/><br/>Sugar likes to have access to her peeps, but doesn't need to be in their personal space. She enjoys cuddling and sniff walks. She's leash savvy, but can pull strongly to get to interesting things. When riding in the car, she likes to sit on her person's lap or in the co-pilot's seat.<br/><br/>Sugar understands crates, and is tolerant of being placed in one - to keep her safe - while her family is out of the house. She sleeps well in the bed with her foster mom. She likes getting treats from her foster dad, especially the small, soft ones.<br/><br/>Sugar enjoys time in the yard amongst the smaller dogs. She displays more exploring solo than interacting with the others.<br/><br/>If you'd like the sweetest bundle of snuggly goodness this side of Heaven, put in your application for Sugar :)<br/><br/>Available for adoption after 9/29/2026<br/><br/>**********************************************<br/>IF YOU ARE USING PET FINDER:<br/>Visit our website, www.foothillscaninerescue.org,<br/>Choose Adopt/Adopt a Dog and find the dog you are interested in, Click the "Apply for Adoption" button to fill out an application.<br/><br/>The Adoption Fee includes: two vaccinations, deworming, and heart worm prevention when age-appropriate.
