My story

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

Meet Ribbons, a goofy, ultra-sweet soul who is looking for a forever home where she can shower her people with affection. If you’re searching for a companion who is equal parts "cuddle bug" and "entertainer," Ribbons is your girl! She has a heart of gold and a personality that shines brightest when she’s carrying around her favorite stuffed animals—she absolutely adores her toys and will likely show them off to you with a wagging tail.

Ribbons is a true people-person. She is incredibly friendly and has already proven to be a great companion for older children, having done wonderfully when meeting a 12-year-old. She is also a social butterfly with other pups! While she prefers to take things at her own pace when meeting smaller dogs, she is generally dog-friendly and enjoys the company of her peers. She has even shown that she can coexist with cats; with a patient, slow introduction, she learned to settle in beautifully with the feline friends in her previous home.

When it comes to the "boring" stuff like house manners, Ribbons is a dedicated student. She is crate trained and does very well with her alone time. While she might give you a tiny, soulful whimper when you first leave—just to let you know she’ll miss you—she settles in nicely and handles her quiet time like a pro. She is incredibly treat-motivated. Her love for food makes her a dream to train; show her a tasty snack, and she’s ready to learn whatever you want to teach her!

Ultimately, Ribbons is just a "good girl" who wants to please. She is the perfect mix of a playful, goofy spirit and a calm, cuddly companion. With a little bit of consistent routine and plenty of love, Ribbons will be the most loyal and loving addition to your family.
