During a recent playgroup session, she was content to walk around the yard but wasn't interested in playing or being bothered by another dog. She's clearly very confident and not intimidated by anyone, however she wasn't entirely nice about asking for her space. She was out with males and a female but the entire time she seemed a bit irritated and never played. She is newer to the shelter so she could just need more time to settle or may do well with slowly introducing her to a low-key coexisting dog.
If you're interested in learning more about her, please reach out to our Volunteer Matchmakers at wcac.matchmaker@gmail.com with the subject line " Melanie 249094".
She is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and will be spayed prior to going home. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times. Primary Color: Brown Weight: 59 Age: 3yrs 0mths 2wks
