~8 months old. Good with dogs and cats. Good with older considerate children. Good for seniors and good with farm animals. Needs a companion animal.My name is Kitzel and it means tickle. Just you try to catch me to tickle me! I am a little ball of fur. I love my brothers and sisters (I have four) and I play with everybody. My big brother Maverick lets me bite his nose! When he rolls over on his back I jump on top of him. If he snarls I move. I surely love them all. My foster mom fills up a foot tub for my little sister and me. That is fun but the water trough at the barn is my favorite especially when the horses are drinking! I am learning to swim in the big pond. I saw a turtle the other day. I walk with my foster mom and my family every morning. Afterwards I take a swim in the pond. Boy am I tuckered out and I need a nap. I get in my crate and sleep. When I am ready I go out the doggie door and go outside and play play and play. By the way I am almost house trained. I am so SMART.If you give me a forever home I will cuddle up with every evening while you read or watch television. I am a snuggler.Update from Foster Mom on 5/15: Kitzel will need a fenced-in yard that is secure. She wants to run and play. She has never been closed in her crate however she goes in the crate freely when she wants to sleep. Kitzel loves to run and play and swim swim swim. I hope that Kitzel can find a home where someone is home most of the time. She loves being with her foster mom and her brothers and sisters. This freedom and closeness I think is why she is such a superb puppy.Update from Foster Mom 7/16:Kitzel is now five months old and growing. She enjoys playing with her big brothers and swimming swimming. Running on the farm is her past time. There are children in the neighborhood and she always tries to find them. She loves children. Kitzel is such a happy puppy. Because she is so energetic she will need lots of space and a companion.Update from Foster Mom 9/28:Kitzel is now eight months old and she has become quite the lady. She lives with three big GS males and they indulge her every whim. Kitzel loves to sun bathe on the porch. She definitely needs a fenced yard because she loves to ROAM. If you have a kitty then Kitzel is the one. She adores cats and begs to visit my neighbor daily and play with her cat. Swimming in the pond or in the pool is a favorite past time of Kitzel's. Please don't ask for Kitzel if she has to stay in a crate she will scream until she is released. Kitzel is so loving and kisses and hugs are required.
