Meet Chelsea: A Playful Sweetheart Seeking the Right Environment

Chelsea (also known as Molly) is a sweet, affectionate dog who loves her people and absolutely adores other dogs. She's a social butterfly at the dog park, readily greeting canine friends and engaging in enthusiastic play with lots of wrestling. She's energetic and playful, though she's still learning to read some social cues about when other dogs are done playing.

With people, Chelsea can be initially shy but warms up very quickly. Sometimes she'll confidently walk right up to greet someone, and other times she needs a moment to build her courage. Once she's comfortable, her affectionate nature shines through.
Chelsea is housetrained and does well overnight. She gets happy when it's time to put on her harness and enjoys going outside for potty breaks and especially for trips to the dog park. However, she's fearful of busy urban environments with heavy traffic and constant foot traffic, which has made traditional neighborhood walks challenging in her current location. A quieter setting may help her feel more confident about exploring on leash.

When left alone during the day, Chelsea experiences some anxiety and has chewed on a few things that she maybe thought twice about after - paper products like tissues and books. Crate training will be important for her success and safety when home alone, and she'll benefit from an adopter committed to helping her when she is uncomfortable being alone through gradual training and enrichment.

Chelsea needs a home that can provide structure, continued socialization with dogs, and patience as she builds confidence in new situations.
