Khaleesi (25-029)

My story

Introducing Khaleesi! Playful Affectionate Snuggly Shy Personality: Khaleesi is a playful, affectionate girl with a gentle soul and a soft coat that practically begs for pets. She loves snuggling on the bed, engaging in tug-of-war, and getting cozy with her humans. While she bonds quickly and shows lots of love, she does need slow introductions with new people. Her easygoing nature shines once she feels safe and loved. Socialness: Khaleesi does well with older children but hasn't had experience with younger ones. She gets along well with the small dog in her foster home, though she has displayed some reactivity toward another female Great Dane in the household. There are no cats in her current home, but she reportedly did well with them in a previous home. She can be shy during vet visits, so patience and gentleness go a long way with her. Likes Loves snuggling up in bed and relaxing on the couch Enjoys playing with balls and tug toys Gets excited for walks and attention from her people Dislikes Dislikes being kenneled or confined to a closed room Training: Khaleesi is crate-trained and housebroken. She knows the commands sit, come, and kennel, and is working on lay and stay. While she listens well, she’ll benefit from continued training—especially when it comes to leash manners and adjusting to being left alone. She does go into her kennel when told but has trouble settling down once inside. Health: Khaleesi is in great health with no current concerns. She is mixed with St. Bernard, so she will require regular brushing due to shedding. She loves to eat and would benefit from having her meals spaced out throughout the day.
