Stray Thoughts Spring 2022 Meet Our Long-Term Lovables , Continued
My foster mom has taught me so many tricks and commands and we ’ d love to show off my amazing skills for you ! My foster mom is also offering two free in-home training sessions and 50 % off one of her fun classes at Doggie Depot .
Hello , my name is Piper Lynn . I ’ m a low-maintenance dog with perfect manners . I entertain myself by playing with my toys . Other times , you will find me napping . Truth be told , I ’ m on the lazy side indoors and take a LOT of naps . No need to worry about leaving me home alone . I ’ ll hang out until you return . When I need a little exercise or need to do my “ business ,” we usually go out in the backyard rather than go for a walk . I prefer it that way ! Even though I ’ m a homebody , I really enjoy when visitors come to my house . Pretty low maintenance , right ? I would be so happy if my new family had a fenced yard and not too many stairs .
These Long-Term Lovables have come a long way while in our care and they are ready to reach their full potential in an adoptive home as happy , loving companions !
