Kattie

Profile

May 12, 2012

Kattie is a gorgeous 4 year old PB female, dark red in color and we believe spayed (will find out at vet next week). Kattie was surrendered because the owner has had many tragedies happen in her life in the last couple years and is moving back to Germany where she is from. It was a very tearful surrender for all of us, she is heartbroken she has to leave her behind. I reassured her that Kattie is in good hands with RAGOM and myself and I will do my best to find her the perfect furever family and that is what I intend to do... It was so adorable when the owner gave her a hug goodbye she was talking German to Kattie and you could tell Kattie understood everything she was saying.

The owner told me a lot about Kattie:

• She is a great dog
• She has free roam
• She does not bark much
• She loves kids (was living with a 7 and 12 year old)
• She loves water
• She loves to go in a boat
• She is house trained (yes she is, she does not say when she has to go out but when you let her out she will go)
• She is not sure about getting along with other dogs or cats
• She loves to play ball (yes she does, she is having a blast playing ball) you will see in her pictures she ALWAYS has the ball in her mouth
• She is great in the car (yes, did great on way home)
• Not used to crate (don’t need it)
• Would not require a fence (I have one but believe she will be fine without one)

The one thing we need to work on with Kattie is her weight, she is very overweight and needs someone dedicated to helping her with this. We are taking things slow as we went for our first walk on her first day here and she almost did not make it back, so shorter walks to start out with and we will build up. Also just getting her outside and moving around and throwing the ball has helped her already.

I would love to see a family take her that maybe has no other dogs, (just because she is used to being the only dog) and that has a lot of time to spend with her. Not gone for long hours during the day (she is used to having someone around), she does fine free roam and alone but I want her to feel very loved and to be with people all the time so she feels like she still has her old life with her former humans somewhat similar.

 So if you're that special family and would love to meet her let us know.
