About Agnes:
Agnes is a beautiful girl with a loving nature. She is playful, smart and aimed to please. Agnes has made a dramatic change shortly after we bailed her out from the shelter. She used to be very skittish and reserved; she bonded with the foster parents immediately, only took one week to befriend with the kids. She was placed with different fosters to live with cats, dogs, men and kids. Under loving care and structured training, Agnes proved herself to be a sweet, loving dog. Now she’s become the best playmate of the little girl at foster home.
Agnes was skittish and easily got scared outdoors in the beginning, but soon came out of her shell thru the lead of leash and an outgoing puppy, Eason (who is also waiting for home), that befriended her. Agnes gradually learned to appreciate the good feelings of cuddling and showing affection with humans. She becomes very sociable and is comfortable around strangers. She enjoys the companion of dogs in her foster home too. Her favorite pastime is hanging out with dog pals in dog park and her daily walks.
Agnes will make a great companion pet; she’s well behaved in the house with no chewing or barking issues, and is potty trained. Please watch Agnes’ videos so you know how much joy this girl can share with your family if she is given a chance.

Agnes’s rescue story:
Agnes is one of the luckiest puppies in the world, who is destined to have a home to call her own. She was not in our list to bail from the animal shelter. However, she was picked by the shelter and sent to us instead of the other chosen dog by error. We do not have the heart to return this innocent sweet pup back to the shelter, Agnes’ fate was turned around because of this beautiful mistake. This sweet girl deserves a great home where she can share her unconditional puppy love with!
