Are you looking for an adorable and energetic best friend to share your life with? Thats me! I’m a border mix pup that was found as a stray in El Dorado. MoKan sprang me out of the shelter, and I have been enjoying all the comforts of my foster home ever since! I like playing in the yard with my foster sister, learning fetch, and napping on the couch in the evenings after I get all my zoomies out. I am affectionate, and I want to lick your face and crawl all over you if you let me. My foster mom likes to snuggle on the couch with me while I bring her all my toys to chew on. I am still learning that I can chew on  toys but not people, so it will be a little while before I am ready to be around small children. My nickname right now is ‘Piranha Pup’!

I know how to sit on command and walk well on a leash, but I still have a lot to learn — my foster mom keeps trying to tell me not to jump on people or pee on the fuzzy rug, but I don’t quite understand her yet.

I sleep in my kennel from 10pm to 5am without barking or making a mess, but when I am ready to come out you will definitely hear about it! My foster family says I am a “morning person”, whatever that means.

I’d love a doggie friend in my new home but I’d do fine as a solo dog as well. I live with cats right now and I like them just fine, but they aren’t much fun to play with. I have learned to be polite and give them their space, and my cat friend lets me get close enough to sniff him sometimes. We can hang out on the couch together sometimes, but I am not supposed to chase him, and that’s hard to remember when it is so fun!

I am treat motivated, and very bright. I would make an excellent companion for an active person who can dedicate lots of time to exercise and training.

If you think I am the right dog for you, fill out an application on the Mo-Kan website!

Nettie is being fostered in the North Newton, KS area.
