River

River can be a little shy at first, taking in the world with thoughtful eyes. But once she feels safe and comfortable? Her bright, outgoing personality shines. She becomes playful, affectionate, and wonderfully engaged with her people. She’s always happy.

She is extremely intelligent and very eager to learn. River loves training and picks things up quickly, thriving on praise and connection. She’s fully house trained and crate trained, though she may voice her opinion a bit when first settling into her crate. She can be left for a work day.

With a lovely medium energy level, River enjoys playtime and activity but also knows how to settle. She loves to cuddle.  She would do beautifully in a home that will continue nurturing her confidence, engaging her brilliant mind, and appreciating her sensitive, perceptive nature.
