Meet Gretel


Gretel’s fosters are calling Agnes.

Agnes is good with all kinds of people, including kids.   She can enjoy the company of another dog, but could probably be fine without one -
especially if not left alone for long days.   

She is a calm dog most of the time. She gets in a more playful mood sometimes.   She used to enjoy playing with the other foster pup before the pup got adopted.  She is pretty mellow and laid back for the most part.   The thing that excites her more than anything is going for her daily walk.   

She is good in a crate.   She is housebroken and doesn't damage anything.  We've never left her alone more than about 4 hours. I think she'd be ok alone for extended periods, but she might not be too happy about it.  We have let her have limited run of the house when all of us are gone, and she has done fine.

She isn't destructive and can wait a long time without having to go outside (she sleeps in her kennel near me or in the chair with me and doesn't need to go out during the night).

She will bark at people or dogs that go past the yard if she sees them, but will stop after they've gone by.   


Medical Update 5/15/14:  Gretel had mammary masses removed in early March and mid-april.  Two were benign and one showed low grade malignancy.   Chest x-rays did not show any spread.    She still has some risk of future tumor development,  but is tumor free right now and her prognosis is good.   Gretel seems to have some seasonal allergies and does need anal glands expressed every couple of months.
