This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped.
Sweet Sue is a well-behaved, loving, go-with-the flow kinda gal!
Sue is politely playful with the large and small breed dogs she is currently living with. She is currently living with a cat, but is becoming a bit too interested. She has been friendly with the people she has met, but can be a little hesitant when meeting new people and in new situations. Once she is comfortable she wants all the pets and love. She does well in a crate and is comfortable being left alone for 3-4 hours at a time. She has been left uncrated without destruction. Sue also enjoys a car ride, and is working on her leash skills.
Sue is described as gentle, affectionate, playful, and quiet. She likes to play with toys, and also likes to cuddle up for some laptime. Sue is fairly quiet and she rarely barks. She keeps her crate clean and has not had any accidents inside in weeks. She is a smart, gentle, sweet, and playful once in a comfortable environment.
Sue's background: This sweet mama was found in the country with her pup, Della. To us, it seems that she lived in a home before as she has good house "manners". Sue is now ready for her turn at her furever home and her own forever family.

Additional info you should know - For most of our dogs, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our dogs as an individual and do our best to describe and place them based on personality not breed label. Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor.
