Has your dog ever shown any challenging behaviors, such as biting a person or another pet? If so, please share some context.: Nope

How often does your dog require grooming (e.g., bathing, brushing, trimming)? : She is a shorthair, no shedding. But needs regularly groomed-maybe once every 1-2 month? or else she gets itchy and overgrown.

What's the most endearing thing about your dog?: Many things! She's so smart and sweet. Will just "hang out" while you are busy and sleep but loves playtime!

What criteria are important to you when considering an adoptive family or home for your pet?: Faith is versatile. She is a dog who would keep someone who is home all the time company or if you're an on-the-go family she would hang out at home. She's really great with little kids also. We would love someone who would take her on lots of car rides also. Haha:)

Is there anything else you'd like your pet's new family to know?: We love her so much and are looking for a family that will love her as much as we do and be able to be home with her. She is excellent with little kids and would be a great match for young families. She also loves cats.
