ABOUT THIS ANIMAL
Sally likes to lay her front half on your lap and lean in for belly rubs. She knows sit, down, come, look, and touch, and is learning drop. She enjoys hikes, playing fetch, and agility. She’s comfortable in the car and rides quietly. In the home, she signals at the door to go potty and settles down to chew on a bone. She is calm for grooming and baths. Sally is a 44lb mixed breed with striking blue and gold eyes and is part of FOHA’s Diamond Dog program, which provides extra training and support after adoption.
HOW AM I WITH DOGS
Sally is an enthusiastic player who enjoys wrestling and running. She does well in playgroups at the shelter. She does best with active, confident dogs who can match her energy. Sally walks past other kenneled dogs without reacting and ignores barking dogs on walks. A meet-and-greet with any resident dog is recommended.
HOW AM I WITH CATS
No cats.
HOW AM I WITH KIDS
Does best with adults or older, respectful kids.

THINGS I LIKE
Sally likes hiking, playing fetch (she brings the ball back each time), splashing in a pool, and running through the leaves. She’s been comfortable learning agility, including the A-frame, elevated walk, and weave poles. She likes to rest on your lap for rubs or chew on a bone. She picks up new commands quickly and enjoys training.
THINGS I STRUGGLE WITH
Sally needs time to settle in new environments and can be excitable when meeting new people. She can be a strong puller when excited about something on a walk, a front-clip harness helps with leash walking.
