a pee pad at night. She does not like being crated and can be trusted free in the house.
KNOWN LIKES: Snuggling up to and following dog siblings, comfortable couch spots, sniffing in the yard, TREATS.
KNOWN DISLIKES: We are working on our shyness, but being held or touched can still be scary.
ABOUT MILLIE (MILDRED): Millie is slowly gaining confidence with the help of dog siblings. She has fully taken to life in a home with comfortable dog beds and the couch to snooze on. She follows a dog sibling in and out of the yard to do her business and , in true
beagle fashion with nose to the ground, can be observed happily exploring all the smells. This girl LOVES treats and will come up to her foster mom when one is held out. She recently found her beagle voice and will let foster mom know when preparing
breakfast is taking too long, and can joyfully ‘talk’ to different outside noises.
Millie is a shy, easily spooked, sweet senior girl who will continue to need time and patience to fully trust her human. She will provide you with her loyal company, snooze near you on the couch as you watch TV or read. This girl doesn’t ask for much, just a comfortable, safe, calm place where she can relax, take her many naps in between trips to the yard and some rolling in the sunny grass spots, along with a dog sibling or two.
