Suwa was claimed from the local Taiwanese shelter with multiple lacerations on her. We don’t know what happened to her but she’s certainly timid of people in general. She will need a guardian who is willing to be patient, and bring her out of her shell.
At home, Suwa is like a normal puppy. She loves playing with Tin-tin the puppy and stealing her food. She loves the resident kitty as the kitty plays with her like how a dog would play. It took her a while but now when the foster mother said kiss, Suwa would tap her nose to the foster mother’s nose. At first, she would freak out when going outside, and barking at strangers that pass by, but now, she is brave enough to stroll into the neighbour salon to say hi, and entering convenient stores without a problem.
Compared to an average Formosan Mountain Dog Cross, Suwa is smaller than average perhaps due to her early life trauma. She is now 5 months old and we think she will only get slightly larger than the size she is.
