• “Gets super excited about other dogs and people! I didn’t properly socialize her when she was a puppy and now she is super reactive with new pups and peeps. It is all excitement though and she is never aggressive. In fact, once the new wears off, she usually disengages. I’d love for her to meet other pups and start to get used to interaction.“

  — Chaili R.

• “Freyja is a sweet and intuitive lady. She was born in Wyoming and has lived there, NM and now NC. She loves to follow me and remain at my heels. Her brother is more playful these days but she has her moments. Her favorite thing is hiking and being in nature. She really loves shows with sheep.“

  — Cloudy X.

• “Freyja is young, brash, and full of vive. Near limitless energy. She loves to play with other dogs and people too. A bit unruly at times but will reluctantly recall and sit. Very stubborn. Strong prey drive.“

  — Lukasz K.

• “I'm a fearful, anxious dog. I'm a 12M rescue from a kill shelter. I'm a lovely and playful pup but because of my history I have not been around other dogs. I'm scared of dogs and people. I've taken 3 classes targeted to dogs like me and I learned that I don't like dogs or people running or approaching me. I have to see them and approach them on my time. Towards the end of the class, I'm more comfortable with the dogs and ready to meet the people. Usually it's too late and I've missed the opportunity 😞 I'd love to meet a chill dog, who can be patient with me.“

  — Monica S.

  — Emma S.

• “Just a happy go lucky kinda gal with some anxiety issues around new situations. We're working on my confidence and I love the *idea* of meeting new people, I just struggle a little with the follow through, especially if it's men. With every new experience and every opportunity I have to work through my fears, I get brave and more settled in myself. I always greet people with my best lab-dance and a toy in my mouth. I loooove water and getting everyone around me as wet and muddy as I do. Give me some space when we first meet, throw some food my way, and we'll be besties before you know it.“

  — Alex B.
