Monica is a smart, house-broken, and kennel-trained dog who does best in a calm, structured environment where she knows what to expect. She absolutely loves being outside and truly thrives when she has time to explore, relax, or enjoy fresh air, making her a great match for someone who enjoys outdoor time or has a yard. Inside the home, she understands routines well and settles nicely with consistency. Monica can be dog selective and would do best with slow, thoughtful introductions or as the only dog in the home, where she can receive focused attention and feel secure. She is protective of her food, so she will need an owner who is comfortable managing feeding boundaries and continuing positive, reward-based training. Monica is nervous around traditional leashes but feels much more confident and comfortable wearing a harness, which helps her move around with less stress. With patience, structure, and an understanding home, Monica has the potential to be a loyal, loving companion who will flourish with someone willing to meet her where she is and help her continue to grow.
