Notes from Matty's Heart & Soul Animal Rescue

Beth and her siblings found themselves unwanted and abandoned at a high kill shelter in West Texas. They are great with other dogs, people and cats, All dogs and puppies require supervision and training to be successful. Looking for a sweet silly sassy girl with a side of stubbornness? Look no further Beth is your girl. Beth has lots of puppy energy and needs to be active. She loves playing and snuggling with her foster siblings both dogs and cats. She does a good job sharing toys and bones. She will sit for treats but can get a little excited when taking them so you may need to remind her to be gentle. Crate trained- will go in crate if needed but does a good job being out of the crate. House trained- does the well at home alone just needs some safe toys and bones to keep her busy. A good walk or play time helps before leaving then she will nap for a few hours. Potty trained- she is 100% potty trained and will go to the door when needing to go outside. (Fenced in yard would be best as she likes to wander) Leash trained- does well on a leash. She can get a little excited at the beginning of a walk and may do some pulling but with a quick gentle correction she will calm down. Dog training commands-Does well - sit, stay , leave it and no. Working on - down, heal and shake. Her recall is good but can be a little stubborn when at home in her own yard if she doesn't want to come in yet. Kids 50/50- she has done a good job with kids at times but she can also be a little unsure and continuously bark at them. She also likes to jump when excited, so she can unintentionally knock a little kid down. So older respectable kids would be best. She would love to have another dog in the house to continue to learn from and play with. She loves to snuggle with her humans and be by your side. She can get protective and guarded at times, but you can easily redirect her. She does well at her vet visits. She also does a good job at pet friendly restaurants or events. She loves going on car rides and adventures. If you're interested in Beth, please put in your application on our website mattysheartandsoulanimalrescue.rescuegroups.org.
