Additional Info from foster parent:

Misha is a very sweet girl packed full of lots of love in her little petite body! She is strongly food motivated and follows commands well. She had some issues at first with barking and peeing in her crate occasionally (potentially due to being nervous), but with a blanket over the crate and some light music she has come a long way in being content in her crate. She likes it and willingly goes in, she just doesn’t always like when the humans are out of the house while she’s in it. Things have been improving greatly though with continued exercise and becoming more comfortable in the home, so I think we’re on the right path! She is also pretty good about not trying to rush out of the crate and waits for the OK to be released. She loves to be close to you and always wants to know what’s going on. She behaves well in crowds and doesn’t bark much, except for when people come to the house. She has even figured out how to run an agility course already! Overall, Misha is one smart girl and would make a wonderful addition to her future family with continued training and guidance!
