Hi!  I'm Berniece.  I've had a rough couple of years, but I'm ready for my next adventure. My fur was super matted when I came into rescue, so I was groomed with a sassy, short style. It's growing back now and looking beautiful. I'm stunning if I do say so myself.  I'm a little shy, but I warm up to new people quickly. I'm also a bit afraid of bigger dogs until I get to know them. My foster mom is so proud that I'm crate trained and nearly house trained.  I love sleeping behind her on the back of the sofa nested in a blanket, or in a soft, cozy bed on the floor.  I'm getting pretty good on a leash too!  It's so much fun to go for walks and to pet stores for treats--especially the treats!  Oh and I prefer soft treats because I don't have many teeth.   I have a cataract in one eye, but that doesn't stop me from getting around and exploring the back yard.   My foster mom thinks I'm around 7 to 8 years old but I'm not telling.  If you are looking for a snuggler and lap dog, I'm your girl.
