COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — Yvette, a dog up for adoption at the Franklin County Dog Shelter and Adoption Center, has some rare qualities that would make her plug in well with any home.
Becca Moser, a behavior coordinator at the shelter, said that if her home wasn’t already full, she would adopt the 3-year-old “Supermutt” herself.
“I think she would do really well in a home with kids,” Moser said. “She’s the sweetest, most snuggly girl, and I think she could hang along if you have some higher-energy, adventurous side to you. She could go for walks, go for hikes, maybe even go for runs, but she really is just down to snuggle.”
Alongside her gentle nature, Yvette is remarkably coordinated and already trained in some ways. Moser confirmed she can catch treats out of the air, and knows tricks including shake, sit and down.
“I think she may even know ‘roll over,'” Moser said.
Yvette also gets along well with other dogs, having the right amount of socialness and playfulness to her. Moser said the shelter uses her to test other dogs’ social skills.
