Sparrow is eager to train and has been practicing her leash walking – she's looking forward to many long walks with her adopter. She knows numerous commands like sit, down, stay, and shake. Tasty snacks are the way to her heart, and she appreciates a good belly rub. Being home alone isn't an issue for Sparrow, she's happy to hang out on the couch during the day and greet you when you return.
