But my walker was patient with me and had lots of tasty treats, so I decided to be brave and give it a try. And guess what? Once I hopped in that first time, I realized it wasn't so bad at all! I jumped right in when it was time to head back. I'm proud to say I have excellent leash manners - I don't pull at all and I like to check in with my walker frequently to make sure we're on the same page. I know my `sit` command and I love treats (did someone say snacks?). We passed other people and bikes calmly along the way - they're interesting to look at but not something that worries me. Other dogs are also pretty interesting too! I'm not reactive to them, just curious about what they're up to. My walker gave me lots of pets and I showed my appreciation with many kisses.What should potential adopters know about me:Jaqueline is a playful and affectionate girl with an adorable stumpy wag. While she can be nervous about new experiences initially - like getting into a car for the first time - she responds nicely to a patient approach and positive reinforcement with treats. Once she over comes that initial hesitation, she's confident and comfortable. On walks, Jaqueline has excellent leash manners - she doesn't pull and checks in frequently with her handler. She's treat motivated and already knows `sitâ. Jaqueline passes people and bikes calmly without reactivity and shows non-reactive interest in other dogs (but passes nicely). She thrives in social settings, regularly attending and enjoying doggie play group at the shelter where she plays well with other dogs. Sheâs an affectionate pup who loves to give kisses and enjoys spending time with her people.02/17/26 12:48What did we do on todayâs adventure:Jaqueline started off a bit shy, but she quickly warmed up once she realized her friend had brought snacks and a bag full of stuffed toys just for her. By the time they arrived at their destination, she was eager and ready to explore. Her favorite moments of the outing were the breaks she shared with her friendâplaying with all the stuffed animals and the ball inbetween exploring. She even added to the collection by finding a big stick she was very proud of! It was a quiet morning, and Jaqueline did wonderfully as cyclists, walkers, and other dogs passed by. She was also captivated by the geeseâsome of them impressively large! Interestingly, she didnât seem to notice the squirrel along the way; she was too focused on having fun with her friend. In total, Jaqueline walked about 3 miles and proved to be anexcellent car passenger. What potential adopters should know:While Jaqueline may start off a bit shy, she warms up quickly and bonds deeply with her person. Once she feels comfortable, her sweet personality comes throughâand sheâs eager to connect. Jaqueline is both intelligent and food-motivated, making her an excellent candidate for continued learning andpositive-reinforcement training. Sheâs the kind of dog who will thrive with a patient adopter excited to teach her new skills. In addition to being a fun and loyal companion to her human, Jaqueline also attends playgroup at the shelter, where she enjoys playtime with other dogs. Affectionate at heart, Jaqueline loves to shower her human with kisses and happily soaks up pets and booty scratches. Sheâll be a loving, devoted addition to the right household.Three words to describe me:Playful, Energetic, Affectionate
