Hi, new friend! Matilda here.
I'm nearly grown, still learning the world at my own measured pace, and I happen to think a good chase is life's finest philosophy.
Word is I'm a championship snuggler. I don't like to brag, but the notes don't lie.
I'm still young and full of beans, with a whole lot of love (and the occasional zoomie) saved up for the right person.
I'm a Seattle local, just waiting on the right person.
Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.
Who knows — by Labor Day I might be napping on somebody's couch. I'd love it to be near you, one way or another.
Anyway, thank you for reading all the way to the end. Not everyone does, and I noticed. — Matilda

About Matilda
Animal Information: Matilda and her brother Edison are almost ten-month-old siblings of an accidental litter of five puppies in Fontana Valley. Mom is a Doberman and dad is a shepherd. The owner reached out for support and the Lange Foundation stepped in to assist with vetting and rescue placement. These puppies (now 10 months) are social and friendly based on temperament assessments. They've had limited backyard life to date but have done well going to the vet and with rescue assessments. The owner reports Matilda (currently 35 lbs) is generally calm and does well with dogs she's met. She is the most playful of the group and loves to chase balls and other dogs. We look forward to getting to know Matilda in foster care. Foster Profile: She is doing well with other dogs but takes her time warming up to new people and environments. Once she feels safe, her sweet and goofy personality really starts to shine. She is comfortable in her crate when people are home, but if left alone for more than about three hours, she may try to escape. She did manage to break out of a wire crate once, but after reinforcing it with zip ties, there haven't been any additional escape attempts. She is making steady progress on leash walking but isn't quite ready for long walks, especially in busy areas. She may still benefit from being double-leashed for added security while she continues to build confidence. She loves to snuggle and has a wonderfully silly side. She's also picking up the basics—she responds to her name, mostly understands that "no" means no, and is well on her way to learning "sit."
