Meet Sweet Pea! This adorable girl was first spotted wandering around a business park, where she quickly started winning over the workers with her friendly, social nature. Thankfully, one kind employee connected with a fellow animal rescuer, who came out to secure her and reached out to Worthy Dog for help. Now safely settled in her foster home, Sweet Pea is living the good life with her foster mom, Renee, and her trusty canine sidekick, Ryder. We’ve learned that Sweet Pea is both crate-trained and house-trained, and she’ll even go to the door to let you know when she needs to go out. She has a medium energy level: she LOVES chasing balls in the yard and romping around with Ryder, but she also settles down nicely indoors. She plays hard with her toys and then loves to curl up next to you for a nap. Sweet Pea is an affectionate pup who loves being near her people. She's especially fond of chest and neck rubs, and she’ll gently paw you for more. She’s also been grandson-tested and approved! She happily played with Renee’s visiting grandsons and quickly became one of the gang. She’s a very social pup who has liked everyone she’s met. While she may bark at someone passing by the window, she responds well to redirection and is not overly barky. She is a terrier, so alerting her humans is just part of her job. Renee describes Sweet Pea as “a great dog, full of love and personality.” She’ll make a wonderful kid or dog playmate and will be a loving addition to any family.❤️ Sweet Pea will be arriving in the DC area on 8/2.
