10/25/24 Hey everybody, it’s Mona! My tail is still doing good, you can see the little spot on the end of it in one of my new pictures, and you can also see how hard I wag. My tail comes all the way around and hits my tummy! Those pictures are from one of my days at daycare. I get to be around other dogs all day. I’m still working on being calm when I meet new dogs, apparently when too excited they sometimes don’t realize I’m just super happy to meet a new friend. I’m doing really good on my leash when I walk by myself. When my doggy sister goes along sometimes I need to be held back because she goes soooo slow (lol). I wonder if I’ll do that when I’m her age? I got to go to a house with a cat the other day. It was no big deal, I barely noticed it was there. That house also had 2 kids and I really loved them. I wanted to follow them around and see what they were doing all the time. If you are looking for an enthusiastic little cuddle monster and you can help remind me to be calm when I meet new dogs I would love to meet you. 9/30/24 Hi everybody, Mona checking in! My tail is all healed up but I still wag it super hard because I’m always so happy. I get super excited when I see other dogs and sometimes it sounds like I’m upset but really all I want to do is meet my new best friend and be near them. I’m working on being calmer when I meet new dogs but it’s really hard. I got to go to daycare once and I loved it, and all the dogs there. I met so many dogs, and ran around like crazy, and the human girls there were super nice. I still like my crate, I go in there even for treats, and I’m quiet until it’s time to get out again. I got to go on a vacation and we rode in the car for a long long time and then we went hiking in the woods. It was so much fun! I slept good on the ride, and then I got tired out on the hikes. I included some new pictures from my trip, some of them include my sister too. Look how happy I am! I sure would love to meet you and come live with you.

You’ll still have to be careful to make sure my tail doesn’t bang into too many things though, because I love to wag it super duper hard. I’m working on being calm when I’m on my leash but I still get excited and pull on it. I have a special harness that makes it easier to keep me close. I like it when someone talks to me while we’re walking, I wag my tail and slow down so I can be closer to you. I like to be in my crate while you’re gone or sleeping, that keeps me from getting into mischief. I would much prefer to sleep in bed with you, but I will sleep all night in either place. But when you come home or get out of bed you have to let me out of my crate right away, because I will be wagging my tail the whole time and banging it into the wires. I’m just so happy that I get to see you again! I went camping a couple times and I was really good, I had so much fun! I don’t notice bicycles at all any more, I just focus on where I’m going. You can even leave me in the car by myself if it’s not too hot, I will squeak a little bit at first, but then I just watch for you to come back. If you want to come and meet me I would love it, remember my name is Mona!
Hi everybody, I’m Mona. I am about 1 year old, I look like classic lab but I’m on the tall and thin side. Like a supermodel! I could stand to gain a few pounds, which will be easy because I love to eat. Sometimes I like to look on the table or countertop to see if there is any food up there. I got comfortable in my foster home right away. My previous home couldn’t keep me because they had too many dogs. I have a doggie sister here but she mostly keeps to herself. I like other dogs, especially if they like to play, but I’m told I’m a little bossy. I’m never mean, I just think I know what they should do and where they should go. I’m helping them live their best life! My dad keeps an eye on me and reminds me to relax, then I can concentrate on playing. I love people sooooo much. I love getting pets and snuggles and meeting new people. In fact I get so excited I sometimes jump, which some people don’t like, so I’m trying to remember that. I also wag my tail super hard, but I wagged it so hard that it started to bleed. The vet showed us how to wrap it so it feels better, but they said it’s going to take a long time to heal. I was spayed the other day, and I am ready for a permanent new home. I can’t wait! When my family is gone or asleep I stay in my crate. I usually go in if you just take me over there and say “kennel up”, but sometimes I hold out for a treat. Supermodels can be smart too! Going for walks in the neighborhood or hikes in the woods is a fun activity, which is a good thing because I have lots of energy to burn off. I pull on the leash sometimes, especially if I see a rabbit or squirrel, so be ready! I’m getting better though, because I used to like to chase birds too, but I learned that I can’t fly so it’s just a waste of time. Bicycles are a little weird, so I usually back up when I see them. I like riding in the car, and I even learned to hop up into the back by myself. I love my foster family but I really hope I can find a forever family. If you like to play hard and snuggle harder, I would love it if you would come and meet me. |
