PROFILE
Carly Q is a young, playful, affectionate older puppy who is eager to become part of a devoted, loving, very active family. She likes other dogs and interacts well with her foster brothers and will do best in a home with an older, confident dog who likes to play. She is initially quite shy and reserved and takes some time to warm up--but after that, she is very outgoing. Carly Q loves the outdoors, so count this girl in on any hiking and long walks or runs!

She is very smart and eager to please, and easily redirected with toys or treats (she is very food motivated and takes treats nicely). Carly Q is house-trained with frequent potty breaks and is working on her crate-training. She is quickly learning basic obedience commands (including Sit and Down) and leash manners. Her new family must be committed to continuing her training and providing exercise.

Carly Q has a short, dark brindle coat with a white patch on her chest.
