Meet Widget
Available for adoption at the Nashville Humane Association, Widget, pictured above, is a playful, clever pup with a big personality and an adventurous spirit. She loves off-leash playtime, chasing a flirt pole, and playing fetch. She especially enjoys squeaky toys and stuffed animals. One of her funniest quirks is rolling on her treats before eating them. She is treat-motivated and eager to learn. Widget already knows “sit” and is improving through positive reinforcement and trades.
She is friendly with new people and enjoys socializing with other dogs. Her playstyle is bouncy and engaging. She also enjoys calm moments like car rides, kennel time, massages, and scratches. Widget is a fun-loving and interactive companion. She may be a great match for the right home, and is ready to meet you!
