Alessa is a gem in the polishing stage! This young girl appears to have been given limited training before coming into rescue but now has a few basics under her belt. She is housebroken, crate trained, sits, heals on a short leash, and thinks about coming when called. She is also well acclimated to alone time and bedtime without exhibiting separation issues. Alessa is intelligent and willing to please; so, with continued schooling on basic obedience skills, she is sure to razzle dazzle in the bevioral arena in no time.
Her personality, on the other hand, already shines!! She has an exuberant, friendly, happy personality. She loves people; is great with other dogs and cats; loves to play fetch; doesn't have a bad bone in her body; and is totally, awesomely sweet. She's a squiggly cuddle bug who loves couch time with her foster parents and gives endless kisses. Once she gets plenty of attention and exercise, she hits her slowdown button and will settle into her bed, lay on you, or by your side.
Aleesa is a moderately high energy 1-2 years old girl looking for someone who can give her focus, training and lots of playtime; who can provide for her high energy level; who loves to give and receive doggy affection; and, who wants an all-around engaging, goofy and fun companion.
Alessa will need a home with room to run and play and/or a routine with daily exercise. She would do well in a home with other playful dogs or with children who want an active playmate.
Alessa is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, is heartworm negative and on prevention meds.
