Delightful descriptions of these sibling pups written by their foster dad!
Malinois/German Shepherd/Chow mixes, 8 months old."We're ready for our forever homes!"
Curly Sue is inquisitive and smart. When you talk to her, she will tilt her head and look at you as if to say, "Really, do you mean that?" She wants to be the center of attention and is always pushing in to get her loving when we're petting one of the others. She likes to run and play with her siblings when they're outside. She was the only one of the ten that has a bit of wave to her hair like her father. Very sweet and affectionate, but she can be rowdy and rambunctious.
Betty Boop is ready to play anytime. Sweet and loving, energetic and eager. She likes playing in the water puddles when it rains, and has no shame in coming in the house covered in mud. She likes sitting next to me and being petted and loved on. Not a bad barker, but is very alert. She's very affectionate and will make a great companion for someone who will spend time and play with and love her. She's smart and listens when you talk to her.
Little Ann is the smallest, but she is the dominant female of the litter. Very feisty, and bossy with the other dogs. She is very loving and likes attention and petting as much as running and playing outside, and inside when it's raining. She has lots of energy and love for someone who will spend time and love on her. She's smart and attentive when we talk to her. Eager to learn new things, and very inquisitive. When her siblings are arguing and wrestling, she will try to break them up like she's their parent scolding a child. She definitely rules the yard when they're playing.
Rose is very energetic and runs circles around her siblings. Loving and affectionate, she wants to be the center of attention. She's always picking at the other dogs to get them to play with her. She likes playing in the mud puddles after it rains. She's mischievous, and silly like a child pulling a prank. She has no shame coming in with mud all over her and getting my floor dirty. Loves attention and petting.
Marley is pretty laid back, smart and observant. Very affectionate and loving. Energetic and loves to play outside. She's not a leader, but she's not really a follower. She makes her own way and doesn't follow the crowd unless she wants to. She is as happy to lay in the shade as run and romp with her siblings. She likes to sit beside me in the evenings and be petted while we watch TV.
Bella is the most laid back of the group. Kind of timid and patient, she is in no hurry to do anything she doesn't want to do. Very smart and observant, loving and affectionate. I can't pet one of the others without her trying to worm her way between us. She really loves attention and wants to be a lap dog. She likes running and playing with her siblings or just laying on the porch and relaxing.
Growler got his name from the noise he makes when he's being petted and loved on. He's very affectionate and likes attention. Very energetic and rowdy. Loves wrestling and playing with his siblings. He has strong watchdog instincts, and barks when someone pulls up our driveway. He thinks he needs to let us know when anyone is around outside. He's not a bad barker - he's just very observant of who and what's around his yard. I guess he feels he has to watch over his sisters and keep them safe. He likes chasing sticks and balls in the yard and tugging a rope with the others.
They're all pretty much house broken if we let them out every 3 to 4 hours. They eat dry dog food, but would probably eat canned. We haven't tried them on canned food. They haven't been socialized very much, so will be timid and skittish for a while. Not used to the leash, but with time and patience, will probably do well with one.
