FOSTER PARENT COMMENTS: Presley loves to cuddle with her family.  She will jump into a lap whenever given a chance:-) She has never met a stranger or a biscuit that she didn't like. She likes to keep her people within paw's reach and likes to stay close when relaxing.  

She lives with two foster sisters – one dog is a little bigger than Presley, and the other is a little smaller.  After a fairly short introduction period, they are the best of friends.   She MIGHT be ok around cats, after an introduction period.   She has had only a limited exposure.

Presley relaxes comfortably in her crate if we need to be away for an extended timeframe.

She eats in her crate, and follows a routine:  crate up, sit, shake, wait, (put food bowl down), (pause), OK – eat!  (we don’t close the door to the crate – that is just her eating location)

She is energetic, and loves to run!  -- but she is wary of thunder and lightning – and we think she might be afraid of the dark.

Presley loves tomatoes – and would be delighted to have her ‘own’ tomato  plant! 

Presley is really smart, and knows many obedience commands.  She walks well on a leash (in appropriate surrounds without close distractions). She loves to take brisk walks to burn off some energy.  She knows sit, stay, wait, leave it, finish, touch, focus, shake – and many more. 

Mostly, Presley has great house manners – she does like to cuddle on the couch!

She has been around a lot of different people, including children.  While she is excited when initially greeting new people, she quickly settles down.   We have never seen her have a problem when people “mess with” her feet, tail, ears, etc.

Presley will be great with someone who will love her all the time and be her leader.  She is not a good choice for an unleashed dog park, or an environment where she will be around dogs she doesn’t know so she would not do well in apartment/condo setting but somewhere she can run happily in a fenced in yard. Presley would love to find a forever family that would be willing to continue her training so that she can reach her full potential.

EVERY DOG HAS A STORY: BFPA received a heart wrenching plea about a heavily pregnant dog who had been taken into a rural high kill shelter, only to give birth on the cold concrete floor the following day. Thankfully, a wonderful foster family opened their hearts to her and her 7 newborn puppies. Presley raised her puppies (they've all been adopted) and she is now waiting for her own forever family.  Will this be your family??
