Background: Octaviya was born at SFC. She was held back because she is 5th generation of our program. Due to some recent changes, we have opted to place her in a pet home. She has grown much larger than we would like to breed from but she has the most outgoing and fun personality and would make an exceptional pet! She is the such a sweetie! She is fully health tested with Embark, OFA (Eyes, patellas, heart), CHIC certified and UC Davis for her Merle sine length. She is up to date on all DA2PP's and Rabies. She is microchipped. Octaviya can have her name changed. Her parents are retired Sephora and retired Dallas. She is extremely outgoing and fun. She loves people and all of her canine companions. She is not leash trained. She is potty pad trained and trained to go outside to go potty and uses a doggy door. She is treat motivated. She does get a little motion sickness in the car. She has a pretty docile personality and I think she would blend into a household very well given time and patience. She does well with both men and women. She is a minimal barker. She dislikes having her nails trimmed. Octaviya has not been around any small children, but she is very young, so I think she would do fine. We do not have any cats or large breed dogs so we cannot confirm how she would behave with either of those other household pets.
Octaviya is coming from a breeding environment so will need to be potty trained in a new environment. At this time she is used to indoor potty pads and a dog door to use her yard. This typically improves after alteration and when they are removed from a breeding environment, but please do not attempt to adopt her if you are wanting a fully house trained animal. Like every animal we post for rehoming, we hope you would understand that they will have accidents initially and will need patience! We have rehomed a lot of dogs over the years and they all seem to mesh into a new environment fairly well with time and patience. She is a very loving companion and would be an ideal pet for someone who needs a constant friend nearby. Please consider Octaviya for your home and family.
Pet home agrees to have her spayed within 90 days after adoption.
She has been genetically health tested with Embark and is clear in all breed relevant categories.
We encourage all prospective adopters to really think this through and not take on a dog that may not work for you. We want her next home to be her forever home. To submit an application for Octaviya, please use our puppy/dog application for consideration.

Please be aware that Octaviya is from a breeding home. She will not be fully potty trained in a new environment and will take patience and the ability to retrain to establish a new routine
-
Please read the post below about the 3/3/3 rule! Not one dog is like another and you need to be open minded when adopting an adult dog who is very used to their current environment
