vera is an older dog, she is a rescue dog so we are unsure of her age! she suffers from arthritis so cannot walk that much. It is important that she does not have to do many steps or stairs, she sleeps alot but always wakes when you are eating. She is not very confident with other dogs. She is very friendly doesn't bark, chew, or lick! Because of her arthritis she doesn't climb on furniture she just likes a soft duvet to sleep on.
