I’m super excited to tell you a little bit about me. I am waiting patiently to find my forever family –
I know you’re out there, and I’m so excited to find you!

You’ll always find me with my people, sitting quietly on a kitchen stool beside my foster sister while she studies, sleeping in on lazy Sunday mornings, or just relaxing nearby while my foster mom is working in the kitchen. Sometimes I even try to follow her into the bathroom. So what? She watches me do my business – fair’s fair.

I prove what a good girl I am all the time with my manners in the house. I’m a good listener and know all my commands, and I always ask to go outside to do my business. I like my crate well enough, but when I’m home alone, I don’t really use it. I just find a nice spot to lay quietly where I can move around with the sunbeams. I would never even think of getting into trouble while my people are gone! I do love to chew and destroy my stuffies (and I can make quite a spectacle of it) but I know to only play with my own things. My foster family says that this good behavior isn’t even why everyone loves me so much!

Yeah, I am a cutie (just being honest), but apparently what makes me so special is that I have a LOT of personality. What can I say? I want to share the joy and there is nothing better than hearing laughter ring out through the house. I’ll do anything for a smile!

Part of this joy is because I feel so safe. My foster home is a pretty quiet, low-key place without a lot of commotion, which I really like. I had a rough start, and, well, it takes time to heal. I’m still a little scared. I rely on my humans to help me navigate the world outside. Foster mom says they just try to think about what serves me best. I like to play, to be outside and to use my nose, but I don’t like sudden noises or people or dogs that seem to come out of nowhere. They help me by giving me space from these things. Bonus: when I’m focused on my people, or I’m able to walk nicely by a barking dog because I’m not too close, I get little treats! It helps me not to be so scared, because it gives me a good memory instead. Somehow it seems to be getting easier all the time! I know it takes time and patience, but it helps so much to know that my people have my back.

I’m thankful for my fosters and feel bad saying that I wish they had a fenced yard – so I won’t say it. Do you have a fenced yard? No reason, just asking.

Forever family, I hope you find me. I’m proud to show you how far I’ve come and how much love I have to offer.

– Love, Miley.
