Catalina

Description

Helloooo! I'm Catalina! If you're an avoidant relationship type, don't apply for me! I want to be your best friend, kiss you, play with you, and invade your personal space! I'm a sweetheart who has been loved every bit of my rescue journey. I was a shelter favorite and everybody along my transport said I was a complete doll. When my foster family picked me up, I gave the kids kisses the moment I got in the car and several times on the way home. I'm excited to meet everyone and do everything! I'm a "plug and play" kind of dog! I will come to you with the basics down, I'll just need some fine-tuning! Someone along the way loved me enough to teach me basic commands, and I'm really good at sit and down. I typically sit for pets and at the door when I want to be let out. If you tell me no, I'm very responsive to redirection and I'm respectful on a leash. I'm quickly learning the rules of the house and haven't had any accidents. I'm crate trained and I go to my kennel for dog dinner time. I've been staying out of the crate at night with no issues. So far I haven't been very food motivated, and I don't beg or steal food even when the kids are eating chimkin nuggies nearby. I'm a really easy-going, trainable type of dog! I wouldn't mind a high energy friend! That said, I have been very respectful of the older dog here who doesn't play much. Sometimes I will go "full play mode" - but if everyone is busy or uninterested I'm happy to go grab a toy and play on my own. I'm currently living with cats and I'd really like to chase them and play like puppies. I've learned their hisses may be followed by a scary swat, so most of the time I leave them alone but I still need reminders. If you have a dog savvy cat and time and patience to teach me I might be able to live with kitties. If all of this hasn't got you scrambling to apply, there's also my looks. GORGEOUS! I'm also very tall. Like a supermodel. I'll be a dream dog for almost any living situation - even an apartment as long as long as I have a chance to get my energies out. If you're dreaming of a girl like me, fill out an application and mention Catalina!
