Notes from Dogs are Deserving

If you’re looking for a sweet and affectionate doggie aged to perfection, meet Vicky. She is 9 years old and although we might not know much about her past, this sweet girl has a lot of love to give and her personality has been blossoming in her foster home. She is potty trained and will let you know when she needs to go out. She has quickly learned to enjoy car rides and does so good for baths. She is also getting the hang of ‘sit’, who says you can’t teach a senior dog new tricks? Vicky might not be a puppy but she doesn’t know that. She will happily lounge around most of the day but has bursts of energy and loves to play tug with her plushies and finding new hiding spots for her bone. She also enjoys long strolls in the park and a light jog to get the last of her energy out before plopping down to roll around on the grass. Vicky is highly treat motivated and doesn’t usually mind seeing other dogs on walks. She can refocus with the clicker and praise or treats. She absolutely loves people and affection. You’ll know when she’s happy/excited because her tail wags like a little propeller. Her love language is words of affirmation and lots of treats. Vicky is full of love and looking for her forever home.
