My story

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

Ivy is a gentle soul who’s still learning that the world can be a safe and loving place. Life hasn’t always been easy for her and she's known nothing but our facility as life since coming to us in April 2023 with her 5 littermates, and because of that, they’re a bit shy and reserved at first. Loud noises and new situations can feel overwhelming, so they’ll need a calm, patient person who understands that trust takes time and is willing to let her just be a dog and come around in her own time.
Once Ivy begins to feel safe, you’ll see her sweet spirit shine through. The first tail wag, the first time she chooses to sit near you, or that gentle nudge for affection—it will mean the world, because she gave you her trust. Ivy would thrive in a quiet home with someone who can let her blossom at her own pace, all she needs is love, patience, and someone willing to celebrate the little victories along the way. If you open your heart and home to Ivy, you won’t just be rescuing a dog—you’ll be gaining a deeply loyal companion who will never forget the kindness you showed her. She is a lab mix around 2.5 years old, is spayed, microchipped and up to date on vaccines. If interested in fostering or adopting Ivy, please complete an application online at www.hooforpaw.org/forms

Ivy has been spayed, microchipped and is up to date on vaccinations.

If you're interested in fostering or adopting, please review our Adoption Process using the following link, https://www.hooforpaw.org/available-animals/adoption-process

If the pet you are interested in will be around children, we always suggest the below article for teaching your child appropriate interaction methods for their new lifelong friend prior to bringing your new family member home. We recommend this because in most cases of dog bites the bite could have been avoided if the supervising adult recognized the dog's body language and distress signs. https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/training/teaching-young-children-respect-dogs/
