Hi, my name is Arya and I am a 4 month old Boxer / Pit Bull Mix. Since arriving at my foster home I have learned so many new things. My foster mom is amazed at how well I am doing with crate training and potty training. When I was first put in a crate, I didn't like it and I cried a lot, but now run right in! I've learned that is a fun place where I can relax and chew on my toys when my foster mom is at work. I never make messes in there either and will sleep through the night without a problem. I like to sleep in my crate but I also like when my foster parents let me stay out all night and sleep on the bed. They say I'm a really good snuggler! I'm getting the hang of potty training, and I go potty immediately when I get to the grass. I have gone several days without having an accident and I'm still a baby! I'm very proud of myself and I know I'll get even better as I get older. My favorite things are going on walks, cuddling and chewing on my toys. I'm pretty amazing at all three of those things. I love to cuddle in bed with my foster mom and take a nap. We have also been working on training and I have already learned how to sit! I'll do anything for a treat. My temperament is very goofy and fun-loving. I can be a little shy around strangers but after a few minutes, I'm ready to give them love and kisses.
