Capuchin is an adorable 2-year-old terrier mix who is on the lookout for her forever home. This sweet pup is a little shy and slow to warm up to new people, but once she feels comfortable, she is the sweetest and most loving companion one could ask for. Capuchin loves showing off her tricks and impressing her humans with her skills. However, due to her timid nature, she will need a patient and understanding adopter who can work with her to overcome her fears and build her confidence. While Capuchin can be nervous around new guests, she has done exceptionally well in her foster home and is crate trained. She knows basic commands such as sit, place, and spin, and she is an avid player who loves running around the yard and playing with other dogs. Capuchin has been spending time with a professional trainer to work on her manners and socialization skills. With patience and gentle guidance, she has been making great strides and is now ready to find a loving and active home where she can continue to grow and thrive. If you are interested in adopting Capuchin and providing her with the love and care she needs, please get in touch with us to schedule a meet-and-greet. Together, we can give Capuchin the happy and fulfilling life she deserves! |
