Foster Home Feedback
11/9/26 Foster Feedback: Birdadette, affectionately known as Birdie, has been an absolute sweetheart in our home! At 10 weeks old, this large-breed Spaniel mix is already showing what a lovely little companion she is. She is gentle, smart, and well-mannered for her age. She can be a little reserved at first, but warms up quickly and is happy and curious when meeting new people. She has met new people both at the vet and in our home and has done wonderfully.
Birdadette has a great balance of being affectionate and independent. She loves to cuddle up with both people and other dogs, especially my husband, but she isn't a Velcro puppy and is also comfortable doing her own thing. She is playful, but tends to play in shorter bursts before settling in for some downtime. She has also been very quiet, with very little barking so far.
She has had no accidents in the house and is doing great with her crate. The first couple of nights Birdadette woke me up twice to go potty, but the last two nights she has slept through the night without waking me or having any accidents. She picked up the sit command quickly and is clearly a smart little girl. She has typical puppy chewing habits, but redirects easily to toys and listens when told to leave something alone. She hasn't been chewing on us, aside from the occasional nose nibble when she gets overly excited. She rides well in the car in a crate with little whining and let me trim her nails myself without protest.
Birdadette has been closely supervised around our small and senior resident and foster dogs and has been very gentle with them. She seems to really enjoy being near other dogs and often wants to cuddle up with them. She has shown nice spatial awareness and has been respectful of their space, which is wonderful to see in such a young puppy.
Birdadette is expected to grow into a large dog, so continued training, consistency, and positive reinforcement will be important as she grows. Working on leash manners, boundaries, polite greetings, and things like keeping paws off people and counters will help set her up for success. Like any puppy, she'll need continued guidance as she learns and matures.
Overall, Birdadette has been such a joy to have in our home. She is sweet, gentle, affectionate, smart, and has a really nice balance of playful and calm. She has all the makings of a wonderful family companion, and we've really enjoyed getting to know her!
