My story

　　She is a quiet old gal. She does fine with other dogs, though sometimes she`s not interested in their shenanigans and corrects them in a bid to be left alone. She`ll let out a big BARK or a low growl when she`shad enough. Her favorite thing to do is sleep on the couch. She loves all things soft. She likes to rub her face on blankets and sweaters. She`s a very cautious and shy eater. With consistency and scheduling I believe she`ll shake the caution quickly. She gets playful bursts of energy in the afternoons. She likes a few minutes of tug-o-war with a rope bone.She`s potty trained and crate trained. As long as there is a big, soft bed in the crate with multiple blankets for burrowing. She does a little dance after she poops! She seems to hear some sounds. She doesn`t react to her name or kissy noises. She can here loud whistles and hand claps. She also seems to hear my dogs bark from time to time. Due to this hearing issue, she startles easily. Best way to wake her up is to blow on her face or ears. She gets scared/confused if my dogs are making a big ruckus (leaf blowers cause mine to lose their minds) and will start to pant and whimper. During those times she wants to be very close to me for reassurance. She`s a licker and does not realize she`s 70-75 lbs. She`ll climb right on top of your lap.
