Here's what the humans have to say about me:
UPDATE: ADOPTION PENDING!
This little girl found herself a stray, in rural South Carolina. She was lonely and hungry, and animal control caught her in a trap. Within days of being trapped and taken to the local shelter, Dani gave birth to a litter of beautiful little puppies all alone, which shocked people, as she was no more than a puppy herself. All of Dani's babies have been adopted, and now she wants her chance at a forever home! Dani is about 2 yrs old. A lot of people have asked us what she is mixed with so we took a guess at shepherd mix, but truly she is a Heinz 57 blend. We do not guarantee any breed mix/combo.
Dani was scared and unsocialized when she came into foster care. With much patience, her foster family has allowed her to come out of her shell on her own sweet time. She has transformed into an incredibly playful, cuddly, loving dog who wants to be touching, leaning against, or curled up with you all the time. She currently sleeps with the foster’s teenage daughter curled up next to her pillow with Dani’s head resting on her chest or arm. Dani loves to play, but she’s not a hyper dog, she just loves playing! She will chase, wrestle, tag, and do the zoomies, but will sleep peacefully all night and at nap time. She loves playing with her foster doggie siblings, chasing squirrels, squeaking stuffed dog toys, and chewing on nylabones.
Dani loves, loves, loves walks, and has even gone for runs. She loves car rides, and has learned basic commands. Dani’s past is unknown, but her shyness is subsiding more and more every day. She is still slightly fearful of people and other dogs at an initial greeting, but quickly warms up. The foster has been using positive reinforcement training and makes steps of progress every day. We are looking for a patient adopter who will commit time to training so she continues her transformation so that someday her fears will be gone forever. Dani would do best in a home with another confident, playful dog. Dani gets confidence from a doggie companion, and we have seen that this helps her around strangers and other dogs.
Dani has been fully vetted, is heartworm negative, is up to date on all vaccines, is spayed, microchipped, and on current heartworm prevention and flea prevention. She weighs about 40 lbs. and is full grown.
