She is so gentle and kind and still acts like a puppy.  She is very interested in learning commands and would benefit from some basic obedience training. • Belinda would do best with slow introductions to other dogs.  She showed a wide range of emotions when introduced to my resident dogs. She shifted from curious, to scared, to wanting to play, to slightly aggressive and reactive. One of our permanent dogs reacts to any new dog that takes our attention, which didn’t help the situation. Belinda got along fine with our small old male dog, so the dynamic may be easier with males than with the females.  • Belinda doesn’t like sleeping on dog beds. She prefers to pull all the blankets into the middle of the floor and sleep on those. She slept for six straight hours after all the change and excitement of going from the shelter to a home for the night.  • Belinda had no accidents inside and seemed to understand the “outside” command.  • Belinda loves walks, but you need to watch her closely.  If she is not watched she will chew on her collar or leash.  • Belinda was very anxious in the kennel for short periods during the night, but the next morning she did a fabulous job being kenneled with no crying or barking.  • She is not food motivated; she eats slowly even with her medication mixed in and doesn’t care much for treats unless they are placed right in front of her.  • After a full day of getting comfy, Belinda was phenomenal. She was super relaxed, liked to gently play with toys and give kisses to our 12 year old male dog.  It was such a joy to have Belinda spend a couple nights with us! She is a very kind soul and will make a great family dog!   To view additional dogs available for adoption, please see our website: www.4luvofdog.org
