Description:

Sugar Plums is a very sweet and gentle dog that is eager to please.  She LOVES to play and run in the yard with a ball.  Sugar is also a great snuggler and just can't get enough belly rubs.  Her leash manners are not too bad, and she makes a great walking and running partner. 

Sugar Plums does take time to learn to trust new people and will take more time than most dogs to adjust to her new home.  She will do best in a quiet home.  If you are willing to give her the time that she needs to become a well adjusted companion, she will not disappoint you.  Sugar is very smart and learns quickly.  She knows sit and come, and she is learning to lay down, paw, and stay.  She is also house broken and crate trained.

Sugar does well with other dogs but does have some issues with sharing her toys with them.  This is something that could be corrected with consistent training and time.  She is also good with cats.  She does well with children, but small children can be overwhelming for her and she would do best in a home with older children.

Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal.

Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed.

The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label.

Thank you for looking through our list of animals needing forever homes and choosing rescue first. We appreciate you stopping by.
