My story

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

Rory is a sweet, independent girl who has officially retired from the chaos of life and is now focused on the important things: soft beds, regular meals, and keeping a quiet watch over her people.

She’s not a cuddle bug—and that’s okay. Rory prefers to share space rather than be in your lap. She likes to know where her humans are at all times and will happily follow you from room to room, then settle into her dog bed nearby to supervise.

Rory is calm and low-key. Visitors don’t faze her—she’ll likely snooze right through a holiday gathering. Car rides? No problem. She simply curls up and sleeps. She currently lives with two large dogs and does just fine, enjoys a little playtime a few times a day, and would likely be okay with cats as well.

Rory enjoys exploring the yard and would do best with a fenced area. She’s not great on a leash, so yard time is her happy place. She’s not demanding, not clingy, and not flashy. Rory is for the person or couple who is mostly home, appreciates quiet companionship, and understands that love doesn’t always look like cuddling—it can look like a watchful presence, a wagging tail at shoe time, and gentle mouthing that says, “Hey, don’t forget about me.”

Rory just wants a soft place to land and people she can keep an eye on. If you’re looking for a peaceful companion who will share your space—and your routine—she might be your perfect match.
