Portia is a very young 8 year old.  She loves to play all the time with my 3 year old male dog Ripley.  I suspect she would do very well with another playful  dog.  She has made so much progress since coming to me, she walks very nicely on a leash now.  She also is learning house manners, and  some basic obedience commands.  She is very very friendly and loves to say hello to everyone.  She thinks that everyone is coming to see her!!  She is great with other dogs, and horses.  She does seem to be a bit over stimulated with kitty cats.  She is currently living with one, and has gotten so much more less interested in her.  She loves to play with balls, and also chew bones.  She is very good to groom and loves to get her nails done!!  She is just overall a delight to have around.  It is great to see her blossom, and come out of her shell and enjoy life!!
