My story

　　This little dog is highly sensitive to sound and movement.

　　She apparently has been abused severely and has taken a long time to adjust to being touched without fear.Candy answers to sounds, pursing your lips or a small whistle.She loves children and shows no fear of other dogs, however , she is very protective and will attempt to bite at other dogs if food or petting is involved.My recommendation is to be placed with a Senior, primarily due to her physical condition limiting handling, she is not over demanding for attention but does love her back scratched.She just lately started being lively and I have taken her on a short walk and she follows easily and is happy to do so, she does not run away.She has limited teeth with a swallowing issue and needs soft food only, she will choke on kibbles.This little dog needs soft handling, she is loving and sweet, loves to sleep on the couch or in a recliner with you.She does cry when left alone, so again I would recommend an owner who is home more than awayShe is housebroken, and uses a pet door for in and out.She recognizes the the word `out`

　　to mean to move through a door in front of you, for disabled use if in a wheelchair.
