🐾 MY RESCUE STORY 🐾
I was rescued from the euthanasia list at a crowded city pound, where my future became uncertain simply because there was no more space. Before that, I gave birth to five beautiful puppies, and thankfully every one of them found loving homes of their own.
After watching my puppies leave for their new families, I waited and hoped that someone would come for me too. But as time passed, no one did, and I eventually ended up on the euthanasia list myself.
Thankfully, kind rescuers stepped in just in time and gave me a second chance at life. Now, I’m finally safe and ready to leave those painful memories behind as I search for a forever family who will love and cherish me the way I deserve.
🩺 MY HEALTH 🩺
💖 MY PERSONALITY 💖
Volunteers and staff often say I look like a little model. I have long legs and even walk with graceful little strides like I’m on a runway. Along with my elegant look, I have the sweetest personality and the cutest terrier-like face that people instantly fall in love with.
I can be shy at first and need a little time to warm up, but once I do, I become deeply attached and love following my person around. I form strong bonds and have a very gentle, loving nature.
I’m also incredibly kind and nurturing. While I was at the city pound, I gave birth to five puppies and cared for them the best I could. I even helped nurture puppies who had no mother of their own, taking them under my wing with so much care and patience.
Even though I may seem reserved in the beginning, I’m still a curious girl who happily takes treats and slowly opens up. During my profile photoshoot, I did wonderfully, accepted treats, and soaked up all the love and affection from the volunteers and staff.
🐶 MY SOCIAL SKILLS 🐶
· With People: I can be shy at first, but I warm up with patience, treats, and gentle kindness. I prefer not to be pet right away and appreciate being given a little space to get comfortable at my own pace. I also tend to open up more easily with women than men in the beginning.
Once I feel safe and start to trust you, my sweet side really comes out. I allow myself to be picked up and love to show my belly as a sign that I feel comfortable and secure with you.
· With Dogs: I like to greet new dogs, but I don’t jump into play right away. I prefer to take my time, observe my surroundings, and do my own thing before fully opening up. I tend to get along best with smaller dogs, and I especially have a soft spot for puppies.
· With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown. A cat test can be arranged upon request to ensure the best fit.
⚡️ ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY ⚡️
I have a moderate energy level. I enjoy spending time outdoors, going for walks, and exploring, and once I’ve had my activity, I’m more than happy to settle down and enjoy a cozy nap afterward.
🧠 TRAINING & HABITS 🧠
I can pull on leash a bit at the beginning of walks because I get excited, but once I settle in, I enjoy calm and relaxed walks by your side. Although I may be shy with strangers at first, I warm up with patience and kindness, and before long I’ll come over looking for affection, cuddles, and companionship.
Overall, I’m a quiet and gentle girl with a soft nature. I have good manners around food with people, though I can be a bit sensitive if other dogs come too close during mealtimes. I may bark occasionally when I’m looking for attention, but I settle down quickly once reassured.
I know how to rest calmly in my kennel and relax well when it’s time to wind down. I’m also comfortable using both indoor potty areas and going potty outside.
🏡 MY IDEAL HOME 🏡
I’m searching for a patient, loving family who can help me become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with:
• A family that will provide me with a safe haven – where I can decompress, be myself in a stable environment
• A family that understands my past and is patient with me throughout
• A family that enjoys indoor and outdoor time together
• A family that will love and cherish me forever
• Understanding of my past and willing to be patient while I come out of my shell
💌 SPECIAL NOTES 💌
I’m a gentle and sensitive girl with a lot of love to give once I feel safe and comfortable. While I may seem shy at first, I truly want connection and companionship, and with a little patience, my affectionate and loyal personality shines through beautifully.
Volunteers and staff often describe me as calm, sweet, and incredibly kind-hearted. I form deep bonds with the people I trust and love staying close once I open up. I’m the type of companion who brings a peaceful, comforting presence into the home.
I’ve already shown how resilient and adaptable I can be despite my difficult past. With a patient family who understands my gentle nature and gives me time to settle in, I know I will continue to blossom into a loving, devoted companion.
