My story

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


Meet Aubrey, the sweet and soulful canine companion ready to grace your home with love and loyalty. At 6 years old, Aubrey is a medium mixed breed with a heart as big as her gentle spirit.

Aubrey's journey led her to the shelter on April 26, 2024, through an owner surrender. Previously, she shared her life with 3 adults and 6 children, displaying friendly, outgoing, and playful behavior towards both adults and children, though she prefers contact on her own terms and may avoid or hide when feeling overwhelmed.

During her assessment on April 27, 2024, Aubrey showcased her impeccable leash manners, walking calmly with no reactivity to humans or other dogs. Sociable and affectionate, she responds positively when called over, though she may prefer to lay down and rest during interactions.

Handling Aubrey is a breeze, as she allows gentle touch with a neutral body posture, indicating her trust and comfort with those she bonds with. While her energy level is reported as medium, Aubrey enjoys leisurely jogs and may choose to lay down after a bit of activity.

Despite her friendly demeanor, Aubrey exhibits fearful behavior, particularly when startled or faced with unfamiliar situations. This tendency to avoid strangers and other dogs suggests a need for patience and understanding from her adopters, who should approach interactions slowly and respectfully, allowing Aubrey to feel safe and secure as she adjusts to her new environment.

Potential challenges related to Aubrey's fearfulness highlight the importance of a decompression period and gradual acclimation to new stimuli. With time, patience, and compassionate guidance, Aubrey is sure to blossom into the devoted companion you've been searching for.

If you're ready to open your heart and home to Aubrey, please consider giving her the chance she deserves. Together, you can navigate life's adventures with love and understanding, creating a bond that lasts a lifetime. Adopt Aubrey today and embark on a journey of companionship and joy.
