Bergy**Courtesy Posting**

*** Courtesy Posting *** Bergy joined us from the Jurupa Valley Animal Shelter in early March 2024. She caught our eye because she was incredibly underweight and seemed lonely. We pulled her after learning her time in the shelter was limited. This beautiful, sweet little girl is microchipped, fully vaccinated and will be spayed prior to adoption. She is now at a healthy weight of 28 pounds. Bergy is estimated to be approximately 2 years old and guessed to be a terrier mixed breed, perhaps Boston Terrier. She bonded quickly with the four dogs in her foster home, as well as 10-year twin children. She especially likes playing chase around in the yard with another dog and plays tug of war with ropes and other stuffed dog toys. Bergy does well being in her crate when left alone in the house and sleeps quietly in her crate in a separate room during the night. Bergy is accustomed to being inside and is housebroken (of course she will need to learn the rules at your house.) Bergy enjoys walks and sniffs along the way, Bergy would benefit from leash training to learn not to pull, as well as enforce basic commands such as heel, sit, down, stay, etc... Being a terrier, she is also highly prey driven and loves to chase animals such as lizards and birds. It is unknown how she will react to cats. Bergy’s goals in life are to be cuddled, loved and play. Every morning when her foster mom takes her out of her crate for breakfast Bergy throws both paws on her mom’s shoulders and kisses face. She is a sweet dog and will be a loving devoted companion to a lucky family. Bergy is an alpha female and needs to be in a home with a dog that will be submissive to her or as an only dog. While she seems to be fine sharing toys and treats, she is protective of her food and should eat in her own area if there is another dog around. Bergy Is being fostered in Temecula California. Her foster parents are willing to travel to the Bay Area for potential adopters to meet Bergy. If you think your home is a good match for Bergy, please email Sue at [email protected] and describe a bit about the home you would provide for her.
