My story

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

Twig is a sweet, sweet dog. We have had her since Nov., 2022. We thought we were getting her from a reputable breeder, but after getting her home, we realized she knew nothing - she didn’t even know what to do with a toy.

She has learned a lot since she’s been with us, but she is still very timid and she just doesn’t like my husband - she is terrified of him even though he has never done anything to her. She sleeps in the bed with both of us and licks his face but once we are up for the day, she hides behind me.

We hate to get rid of her, but this doesn’t seem to be working out. She is extremely smart! House trained. Invisible fence trained. Sits. Shakes. And almost lays down. (All for treats).

My name is Twig!

I found a new home! Plenty of my friends are looking for one too. Check out other pets at this shelter, or start a new search.

I'm required to be spayed within 30 days of my adoption.
