Meet Barnum! She came to the shelter as a stray with her sister Baley.She will be a good cuddler. She give people puppy dog eyes for your attention. She desperately wants human contact. She will engage other dogs to play. She loves to roll in the grass.She somtimes will sit/lay down on command.Barnum will need a HIGH fence because she can jump very HIGH! Most dogs like to explore so keeping her on a leash or in a fenced yard with a high fence is the best way to keep her safe. She is very food motivated so training her to do new tricks should be relatively easy! She is somewhat shy being she was a stray and very young. You can pull tail and ears freely so she would make a great candidate for kids. She has too much energy for Senior Adopter but older kids would work well. Would you like a walking, hiking or jogging buddy? Do you want a fun loving playmate? Barnum is waiting.
