Learn more about the American Eskimo Dog.
Hello! I'm Patsy! I know I am a beautiful celebrity --oops, I mean American Eskimo Dog, so won't you please pet me?!?! I just love walking down the street and greeting all of my fans! Just don't come near my foster mom, I don't like sharing her or the attention! Now don't get me wrong, I'm not greedy, it's just that I've never had this much attention before and it's so great that I sometimes become nervous and cry or bark if I think someone's going to take it away from me. One time, my foster mom brought me into the vet to get spayed and left me there all day. Let me tell you, it took me almost two weeks to stop worrying about her leaving me again. I cried and cried and cried for days. Even when my foster mom was sitting right next to me! Thankfully, I'm back to my fabulous self and I can't wait to find my forever home and meet who's going to pet me and cuddle with me and love me for the rest of my life! Even though being left at the vet scared me, I still love going there. I want to run right in each time I walk by! The first time I went in, I tested heartworm negative and got all of my shots. Not only am I a star, I'm healthy too! Since I've been in foster care, I found out that I love getting baths, being brushed, and everything else that requires all attention to be on me! When I first came into the city, my foster mom was a little concerned if I would be scared by all of the new sounds, but after a few days, I learned that car horns, busses, trains, and sirens are nothing to fret over. I just mosey along and mind my business now. I walk nicely on a leash and I love to go for rides in the car. I know my foster mom will keep me safe. I am happy to be outside and on a leash because it means that she's right by my side. Often, other dogs come by and it hurts my feelings because they bark and run at me. I just want to say to them but they're too mad to say hello for some reason. Why do they not like me? Are they jealous of my celebrity status? Occasionally, I will bark at a stranger for no reason. I don't know why I do it. I just do. But hey, I know it's rude so I try to not do it too often. When I go to my forever home, it will need to be a place where I get lots of love and attention like the star that I am deserves to have. I can't help but remember those times when I had no one and I never want to go back to a place like that. Sometimes I get really anxious when I am alone. When I think about it, I start to breath fast, cry, shake, and sometimes I'll accidentally go to the bathroom on the floor. Eventually, I calm down and go back to being the precious little Eskie that I am. You know, a beautiful, sweet, loving, cuddle-bug of an Eskie who will do anything to please the one who cares for her. If you're interested in me and would like more information, please contact Gina at: justus4250@aol.com or gina@eskierescuers.org. You can also visit our website and sign-up to fill out an adoption application and learn more about our adoption process. Whenever possible Eskie Rescuers United tries to adopt out its dogs locally (or at least to adopters in adjoining states to where I'm being fostered). Please note that ERU processes LOCAL adoption applications before considering those from out of state. I'm in Astoria, NY with my foster mommy, Sebria. To get me to you, we can do what's called an "Eskie Railroad," which is a group of volunteer drivers who will each drive a certain portion of the transport. (We always ask that you, as the adopter, help out by taking the final leg.) If I'm not local to you, as explained above, and you really have your heart set on me, you may have to make special arrangements so ERU can get me to you safely (for example, flying me to you at your own expense, or paying a transport group to drive me to you). There is a $150 adoption fee required, and please be aware that Eskie Rescuers United will not adopt out its dogs as outdoor dogs. Thank you and WOOF! PATSY!
