Description
Watusi is a mid-sized lovergurl with a black mask and perky, fuzzy ears. She loves all ppl and other dogs.
Personality
Watusi is well behaved, patient, gentle, smart, submissive, and an obedient girl. She understands what you want her to do in English, has common sense, and good communication skills. Loves to be pet, wants to stay near to people. Watusi is explorative and confident. She sits on your feet or comes up to sit right next to you. She rolls on her back for belly rubs. Crate trained, good on a leash, potty trained. She is good in the car, and plays well with other dogs. Just an easy, level-headed, good first dog.
Background
Watusi was found at Wusson park in Houston in February where a volunteer was meeting an adopter for another dog. Watusi ran up and barked at them, but made it clear that she wanted the volunteer to follow her. She led the volunteer back to a picnic pavillion where someone had left her a dog bed, open bag of food, collar, dog toy, and jug of water. She wanted water, and drank a lot after the volunteer poured her some. Then she let her pet her and put on the collar. She had obviously nursed a litter but there were no puppies anywhere. Watusi willingly followed the volunteer back to her car where she let her pick her up and put her in. She waited patiently for the meeting to end, and then was quiet and calm in the car all the way home. Happy to have been saved.
