Esther is 45 pounds (needs to lose a few pounds of baby weight) and 1.5 years old. She loves people and she loves chewing on her bones. She's not a barker, digger, or climber.

She always uses the doggie door to potty outside. She gets along with most dogs, but I don't know how she is with cats. Esther would love to have children to play with after she receives training.

Esther has recently graduated for the 12 week Puppies 4 Parole program through the Mo Department of Corrections.
