Description: Poppy is a sweet and devoted girl. She adores her people and loves to play fetch. We are using her fetch game to burn off some extra weight she is carrying. Poppy comes already trained. She knows sit, down, stay, and get this, roll over! She is of course potty trained as well. She prefers to sleep on the floor rather than furniture, but will come up when invited. She is pretty quiet, but will sometimes bark when she sees someone out the window. The perfect watch dog! Poppy has been living in a foster home with 2 other dogs. She is good with other dogs, but she is just lately learning to play with one of the other dogs in the home. She has a dominant air about her that often stops other dogs from playing when she enters. She circles around the playing dogs to body block them. She is not really into doggie playmates. What she really wants is to play with people. Throw that toy and off she goes to get it! Poppy came to us when she was thought to be pregnant. She went straight into foster care. As days, then weeks passed, it became evident that Poppy was only overweight, not pregnant. She enjoyed living in her foster home for 2 months. Now she is spayed and ready to find her furever home. She has moved to the VHS building and is ready to meet you.
