*Courtesy Post* If you have any questions or are interested in meeting Piper, please call/text/email Shannon at 530-400-7083 or SecretAgentPuppers@gmail.com. If you are looking for your next doggy best friend, have a special place in your heart for hound dogs, and love to garden or spend time outside, may I introduce Piper - a sweet, mature, cuddly hound who would love to be the spoiled only pup in the home. Piper is primarily Weimaraner, genetically and in personality, but also has American Fox Hound and Treeing Walker Coonhound in her. She is six and a half years young, has a silky black coat, short hair, and the softest hound-dog ears you ever did feel. Piper is intelligent, independent, silly, and an affectionately sweet girl who will enthusiastically greet you with a bonafide smile or a stuffy in her mouth. She is a friendly girl to humans and has a Weimaraner’s sense of personal space, which is to say she will cuddle right up to you or partly on you, or sleep under the covers with you if you will let her. She also has a Weimaraner’s propensity to think she is human! True to hound-dog form, Piper loves the sound of her voice and will tell you all about the birds flying overhead and the butterflies and bees in the garden. Fortunately, she respects her anti-bark vibrating collar when necessary and knows to use her inside voice if it’s imperative to tell you all about the one piece of kibble that ended up somewhere under the couch! Also true to hound-dog form, she loves to run with her nose to the ground on the scent of a compelling adventure and, for this reason, cannot be trusted off leash. She walks well on leash and will happily run as fast as she can next to a bike. But she is currently reactive to other dogs so should be steered away from them or else continue in her training to be less reactive. Piper is very food motivated, which makes training easy. She also likes to work her brain with puzzles, food toys, and learning new skills. Piper is a vermin hunter and will do her best to keep rats away. But at the same time has been living with bunnies with zero incident of aggression. Piper prefers humans over other dog friends and would be her happiest self, living out her happiest life, if she were the only dog of a loving person/family with a sizeable contained yard that she can observe nature in. She is a sweet girl who would make an excellent gardening companion! Piper is spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on her vaccines. She is currently living with Grandma here in Davis. If interested, the family would be amenable to finding a foster-to-keep arrangement to see if she would be a good fit. If you have any questions or are interested in meeting Piper, please call/text/email Shannon at 530-400-7083 or SecretAgentPuppers@gmail.com. All animals are up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies if over 4 months old), microchipped, and spayed or neutered. All dogs have been been vaccinated with DHPP and Bordatella (kennel cough) and heartworm tested negative (if over 6 months). All cats have been vaccinated with FVRCP and current on flea control.
