Hope has made a huge impact on our entire family. She is such an amazing dog, that her foster parents struggled to put her up for adoption.

Hope is genuinely one of the best dogs ever! She is very quick and extremely smart! She knows different sounds in the house. She is aware when it is mealtime, walking, listening to sit or go to the kennel.

Our grandkids came over (4 of them) and my sons. She was so gentle with all the kids! During meals, she stays in her bed or kennel.

When she wags her tail, her whole body moves! It's quite hilarious! She absolutely loves her foster Dad.

Hope is a very active dog. She will need more training and plenty of exercise. Foster parents believe Hope is a mixture of whippet and dachshund? Whatever she is, she is pure joy!

Hope is definitely getting the hang of house training. She's only had a couple accidents, which is typical. After that, she is fine. She is still learning leash training. She is so smart; she will get better with time.

We haven't taken her in a car yet, but I am certain she will be fine. Also, we don't have cats, so uncertain of how she would behave.

The only time Hope barks is when she wants to play. It's definitely a hound howl...so cute! Occasionally, when we have gone to bed, she makes one last bark, I think to make sure we are still here and won't leave her.

We love her to pieces! This home will definitely be empty when the perfect home is found.
