We don't really know
much about Sweetie Petie other than she had a very rough start.
She was rescued by a vigilant Good Samaritan who found her in a kill
shelter and notified a Frenchie lover who has since become a
volunteer for the FBVillage. Poor Petie arrived into foster
care in terrible shape, with a large tumor on her shoulder, teeth
worn down to nubs, skinny, and covered with fleas. She was so
terrified by her time in the shelter and all that led up to it that
she spent her time cowering in a corner, shaking uncontrollably.
Petie is
still timid and handshy, and new situations scare her, but she is
growing more confident by the day.
She is a little velcro dog that
follows her foster mom everywhere.
She loves to lick
people's legs so if an adopter doesn't like a licky dog, Petie is not the right
dog for them.
Petie is a calm,
submissive little dog who loves other dogs. She likes to chase
cats, so a home without cats would be a better choice for her.
She likes older children, but small children make her nervous.
She does not react with aggression, however. Instead she will
go hide under the bed to escape anything she really doesn't want to
deal with.
Petie is not
crate trained, but she is housebroken. She is not a
chewer, and she is not destructive. She minds well and is
great on a leash. She is apparently in good health
and is current on her veterinary care.
The ideal home for Sweetie Petie would be
a fairly quiet home with one or two other dogs to be her
playmates and sleepmates. A single person or an older
couple with young adult children would be a good choice.
Her new owners will need to be patient with her as she was not
housebroken when she came into foster care and has just got the
idea of the whole thing. She would love a family that
would take her with them whenever they go out, but she really
doesn't have a problem staying home alone or with another dog.
This sweet girl deserves
her chance at being somebody's spoiled little princess. If
