Story
**This dog is with Corridor Rescue in Houston, Texas**
Are you looking for a companion who will greet you at the door, play a rousing came of catch, or just go on a 5 mile run with you? A dog that will be good company for your other furbaby? Then keep looking, that is definitely not Beatrix, AKA Queen Bea.
Now, if you’re willing to accept a head lift from her favorite spot on the couch as you come home, warm toes from her melting into the floor at your feet, and a leisurely jog/walk (tops 2 miles since we want to maintain our curves), then Beatrix is for you. Beatrix is a senior gal who spent too much time on the street and now just wants to relax and snooze. She does love her walks, they just need to be short ones. She is not fond of other dogs – in fact, she would eat them if she could – but she is working on it and every once and a while she meets a special pup (like her foster brother Ollie) who she allows to be in her presence. She has come a long way in her commands -sits, comes and walks well on her leash. She has been working on her attitude with other pups, and made progress but she is not there yet. She prefers a comfy spot on the couch, but is crate trained and will literally sit on Ollie until he moves so she can have the whole bed and crate to herself. No food aggression here – she waits patiently for her signal to eat her grain free food (only the best for the queen and her sensitive skin) and enjoys a nice snack of carrots or popcorn.
She does not have a preference on adults or children, they all get the same response: guarded indifference with the occasional knee lick for prosperity. She has been introduced to a cat, showed some interest, but did not chase it. That being said, she would need a proper introduction if going to a family with cats. She is incredibly sweet and low energy, she really just wants to be near people who will love her.
