Sugar

Meet sweet, pretty Sugar. Sugar is approximately 5 years old and was picked up in Aurora, CO, with three other Dals who had been running together in the streets of Aurora for at least several days. They were taken to the Aurora Animal Shelter, and Sugar was transferred to Dalmatian Rescue of Colorado in February. She went directly into foster care. As a very shy and shut down pup, she is learning to accept and maybe even enjoy attention from humans, and she doesn't mind children. She enjoys pets and even cuddles once she gets to know you a bit. Currently, she is not too interested in toys, preferring to watch what's going on around her from her crate, with or without the door open. Sugar doesn't seem to know much about obedience and lacks confidence. She goes out 4 or 5 times a day and sometimes seems to be trying to signal when she wants to go out. Of course, we don't know much about her background - only what we learned about her in the shelter and her couple of weeks at her very busy foster home. Sugar has been pleasant in her foster home so far - seems to prefer women over men, but we hope to see that change as she adjusts to her new environment. She needs to be encouraged or coaxed a lot to interact but has been watching TV at night with the family. She is sweet and appreciates gentle and slow movements. Sugar would be happy in a home with mostly adults (or older children) and one or two calm, gentle dogs. Sugar is up to date on vaccinations, is spayed and microchipped.
