Cookie

Profile

Welcome Cookie to RAGOM! She came all the way up from Georgia a couple of days before Christmas with her siblings. She is a 10-pound, 13-week-old Shepherd/Retriever mix, with short brindle-colored fur and a black nose.

Welcome to winter! She has been here almost two weeks, and is already potty trained! A couple of accidents at the beginning when it was REALLY COLD, but now she knows to go outside. Never once has she had an accident in her kennel, which she shares with her sister Libby 13-425.

She has been to the vet and had a good checkup. She will be on the smaller side; the vet thinks 30-40 pounds max. She was too young for all her shots, so we go back next week and then she will be UTD, spayed, and ready for her forever family!

What we know so far about Cookie:

• She gets along great with dogs and children; we don’t know about cats yet.
• She is extremely fast; she keeps up with all the big dogs and actually is faster than all but one.
• She has been with kids aged 8-24 and charms everyone.
• She is a little shy at first, but warms up quickly.
• She is not a Velcro dog, but does like to be cuddled and loved. She sits next to me on the couch while I read or do computer work (with three of the other dogs) and is fine when I am out of the room. She can entertain herself and play nicely with her sister Libby (13-425) and 6-month-old Remmy (13-251).
• She is smart and will do well in puppy school.
• She goes to bed about 10:30–11 and sleeps all night in her kennel; no peeps until she hears the other dogs come down in the morning around 8!
• She jumps really high and does a funny jump/run combo when she is running in the fenced-in yard – reminds me of a deer!
• She has not walked on a leash yet, but I will work on that AFTER our next cold spree!
