Daisy Mae 07-606 [1]

Meet Daisy Mae!

Daisy is a golden mix – likely a Golden Doodle with a splash of Terrier, but no one knows for sure.  She just turned two, is a svelte 60lb healthy girl whom is spayed and current on all shots.  She is housetrained and goes potty in the same spot every time…..great for your yard! Because Daisy has those great golden genes, she also sheds, although not as much as a purebred.  

Now for all the sweet and funny stuff.  Daisy is such an affectionate girl.  She follows me everywhere – in a very endearing way, not annoying at all.  She loves to sleep in our bed and snuggles into me when we sleep. We have two small children (3 & 6), and they are crazy about Daisy and she loves them too!  Very gentle with them and calm.  I think she really enjoys being with people….maybe even more so than with other dogs.  We have a 2 year old male and 1 year old female dog.  Daisy gets along with our 2 year old male the best….she plays kind of rough and he likes that. She sleeps with our female but they don’t play too much.  Daisy Mae is a crazy woman with toys…loves playing tug and is a toy de-stuffer!!   Watch out when she plays tug because she wins every time!  We have a fenced in yard and she loves to run – she is fast and almost glides.  She is also great on a gentle leader but pulls on a leash.  Daisy would make a great running partner and loves the exercise.

Like every independent woman, sweet Daisy has a few opportunities for improvements.  She has been boarded, so may simply need a refresher on her manners.  We are working with Daisy Mae and she is very responsive.  Daisy is a counter surfer, but is very responsive with a firm ‘down’.  She needs work on treats as she should take them more gently.  This is easy to fix with a bit of practice.  She would do best in a home without cats because while she is crazy about the cats….they are not crazy about Daisy!

I tell you this is one smart woman.  Our dogs are crated during the day….I know…no fun but part of our routine when we are at work. I have to do serious bribing with treats to get her into a crate.  Would you want to be in a crate?!  Daisy knows sit, down and can shake with both hands.  She has been really easy to foster and such a sweet girl – I love coming home to her each day.  If you are interested in learning more about sweet Daisy Mae, please contact placementragom [dot] org.
