Ivan was the only mini in the house at the time, and he was getting lonely since his most recent fur companion had died. Betsy was ready and able to move right in and help complete their family.  Keith recently reported that the family is getting along great, and that Betsy is a veryobedient and happy girl!

Betsy is getting used to her foster fur brother.  They are spending more time together outdoors now that it’s warmer out.  She likes to be outside and will be out on her own with no problems.

Betsy is definitely a “talker.”  She makes little huff-and-puff noises a lot.  Especially when it’s time for dinner.  She is telling us that she wants to eat!  She likes to eat a little too much, though, and she’s currently on a diet.  Betsy also lets us know when she needs to go out.  She likes playing with toys by herself, and she’s learning to play with toys with people and with her foster fur brother.

Overall, Betsy is a very happy and playful dog.  She’s also a BIG fan of snuggling.  She’ll make a fantastic companion for someone.
