Foster Home Feedback
9/6/23 Foster Feedback: Sparkler is doing GREAT! She is now potty-trained, and knows how to utilize a bell to let you know when she needs to go outside. We have also have her kennel trained with a few tasty bribes, and very little singing. We have found that she likes her kennel to be in our bedroom at night - goes right in and settles in quickly. We've finally been able to go on some walks, and while the first five minutes are VERY exciting, she calms down pretty quickly and walks with a loose leash!
Sparkler is such a good dog. She has a lot of puppy energy still, and would probably love a playmate. Like to run? She'd probably love to run with you!
Again, she is VERY treat motivated (we found that Pupperoni is her bribe of choice). She will be very easy to work with and train. She's got her basics down, but could always use refinement or additional training!
She is so sweet and goofy. She loves to snuggle and snores very loud when she's comfy. She loves toys, and playing nonstop! Please consider this pocket pup as a companion. She is so wonderful.
7/10/23 Foster Feedback: Meet Sparkler!
After a very scary bout with Parvo, this firecracker is healthy and ready for her forever home!
She is currently 35lbs at 6 months old. She's got some awkward, lanky legs, so she may get bigger yet. She can sit, lay down, shake, and drop it. We are working on stay and kenneling. She does go in the kennel with some coaxing and treat bribes and then will sing like a Tuesday night karaoke singer... She does calm down though, pretty quickly. We are just refining some potty training. She's almost there!
Sparkler can be very sweet, but is mostly in her puppy phase of needing to play, run, tug, and not knowing how to express her energy. Typical puppy behavior, but she is very treat motivated, and easily trainable!
We haven't been able to walk her, due to her parvo, but I have no doubt she will learn quickly!
Right now, she is learning how to "dog" from three chihuahuas. So, she may be awkward and aloof at first. She can be shy/nervous of loud or new sounds. She has a lot of energy and is ready to become your running partner!
Sparkler is a very typical lab puppy/toddler. With some solid training and a schedule, she is going to be an amazing companion!
