Valerie aims to please! In addition to her adorable looks (those ears!), she is also a very loving, sweet, laid back girl. She has a very calm disposition and remains calm when she meets new people, cats and dogs, which she is friendly with. We haven’t seen her around kids yet but she’s so laid back, it’s hard to imagine she’d have a problem. Valerie is very affectionate and needs to gain some confidence from being loved and spoiled for a while. Her good behavior must come naturally to her because it doesn’t seem like she’s lived much of her 1.5 years as a beloved pet. Home life seems new to her but she's quite happy with it. She does not know basic commands yet but she seems to have a great intuition and will surely learn with a little effort. Valerie needs to pack on a few pounds but otherwise appears healthy. She currently weighs about 65 pounds and needs to weigh about 70-75 pounds
