Cheyenne

Profile

---

Cheyenne is an eight year old spayed female who arrived at my home on Sunday Nov. 14th due to bad weather we stayed overnight at my sister in Belle Plaine. She was really stressed out and not used to being in the house the first few days, so accidents were normal as she isn't housebroke yet and Cheyenne did a lot of pacing. The first few days we just worked on adjusting to new surroundings and assessing her needs.

One of them is a lot of outdoor running to relax her more. She is sleek and long legged and   has lots of energy, hard to keep her in one spot the first days. By picture you can see I finally  got her to relax and sleep on couch as she wouldn't lay on the floor by me. She does sleep in porch at night and seems to be calmer at present in her own space at night.


Cheyenne's forever home will need an adult only family due to mouthing issues. She is destructive of stuffed toys, tennis and racket balls, paper, and will find things if laying around to chew on-have found best so far is a KONG BALL, raw hides, and nyla bones smeared with treats to keep her occupied. Cheyenne will need to be exercised at least twice a day on long runs or in large fenced free roaming area to run or chase balls. She loves to come back and do belly rubs or pets after running. Cheyenne knows her name and comes when called and will sit for short periods when asked to sit.


Cheyenne was an outside dog, so just being potty trained, and has had no accidents in house since first week, but does go outside shortly after drinking lots of water and things have gone nicely. Cheyenne has long legs which she will use for counter surfing as very food oriented. She needs someone with a lot of patience to learn her right and wrong in proper ways due to high anxiety and fears.


Medically she is healthy and only on normal heartworm and frontline at present. Cheyenne does have a small fatty tumor on breast that is normal in many dogs and only needs to be watched. Sometimes while running a lot she does show some signs of hip problem by favoring one back leg.


Cheyenne loves snow and will scoop snow while out running when thirsty. She has a beautiful golden short soft coat for easy maintenance and lovely brown eyes. Cheyenne gets along nicely with kitten and resident dog in house. Adopters watch for changes coming with Cheyenne in updates as she learns ropes of indoor living.
