peaches iv

Peaches was a homeless beagle in an Alabama shelter. She looked sad and very skinny in her picture and we can tell that she was most likely used for breeding and has had many litters. She has put on some weight but we'd like her to put on a little more. There's no problem there because Peaches loves food and does a happy dance at every eating occasion. (Please see video below.) The couch is her favorite place to sleep and her foster mom loves to hear her snore. Other dogs really make peaches happy and she has done really great with the other dog in her foster home. They play well together and Peaches is very good at sharing her toys. We'd very much hope for another dog in her forever home. We don't know how about cats but she does not seem to have any prey drive. She does enjoy meeting new people but can still be a little nervous and crouch down when they reach for her. Her foster mom had an opportunity to see her interact with children in the age range of 5 to 8. She was a bit nervous at the beginning but she loved the pats from them. Peaches is very good on leash and is currently making a B+ in house training. Her foster mom has has rarely crated and only for about an hour with the door shut, but when they need to leave her alone she does fine in the kitchen behind a baby gate. She has her daily zoomies but otherwise Peaches has a pretty chill energy level. She does love to be outside and is confident and curious to explore. Peaches is heartworm positive and her treatment will be scheduled sometime the first week of September, so she will be ready for sleepover the second week.
