My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Lady Godiva has earned her title and we're seeking a family that will worship her just as we do! This medium little gal weighs about 35lbs at about 10 months old and LOVES playtime with other dogs, though sometimes gets offended by certain playstyles so she needs some coaching. When Lady G first came to our shelter, she was suffering from demodex and was super shut down and uncomfortable being touched. She has made a LOT of progress, but still needs a very special home with a family that has the time and patience to set her up for success. We LOVE this dog and we are seeking a good match for her, which we know might take some time. Even though she is young, medium, and dog social, we want to emphasize she is not the right dog for the average adopter.

We are seeking an adopter that ideally has experience with fearful/undersocialized dogs and is prepared for a longer "settling in period" than your average new dog. Her new home most not have cats or kids (we are advising 12+).
