Meet Miss Scarlett!
Miss Scarlett is an absolute sweetheart and the best kind of companion. She is very friendly with people and loves being close to her humans. At bedtime, she happily snuggles up without hogging the bed—and on your days off, she’ll even let you sleep in.
She is mostly potty trained, with only a couple of accidents that were due to timing, not her fault. Scarlett enjoys learning and already knows how to sit… especially if there’s a treat involved! She’s also working on catching treats—she can do it, as long as the toss is just right.
One of Scarlett’s favorite things is being outside. She loves keeping watch for squirrels and rabbits and can have an impressive stare-down with a squirrel in a tree. Because of this, she can be a bit hard to distract when she’s locked in on wildlife, but it’s all part of her curious and observant nature.
Scarlett is a quiet, well-mannered girl who rarely barks. Like many dogs settling into a new home, she is still working on a couple of things, including counter surfing and recall. She’s made progress already and will continue to do best with consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement.
If you’re looking for a loving, funny, and loyal companion who enjoys both outdoor adventures and cozy nights in, Miss Scarlett may be the perfect match for you!
