Foster Profile: Venus is a happy playful pup who
likes to be close by her person. She has a great off switch. Doing well with potty training. Sleeps well in her crate at night in our room (only waking us up twice a night to tell us she needs to go out to potty). For her working dog behaviors-she has great toy, play and food drives. She trains quickly. Seems to have good environmental soundness. She is quickly picking up the skill of whenever she doesn't know how to respond to stimuli she looks to her person for a treat. Venus loves to play and respects boundaries. (Anytime she gets overstimulated just two 2 min timeout in her crate next to me she calms down and is ready to play again.
