Meet Lovie, a young, gentle soul who is unfamiliar with the world. Despite her shy and cautious nature, Lovie is incredibly sweet and friendly once she realizes that she can trust you. Her previous life outdoors left her somewhat unsocialized and jumpy, yet she remains loving and eager to bond. Lovie is playful and energetic, always ready for a game or a cuddle. She weighs 28 pounds and likes car rides, running, and playing chase with her sister. She is easygoing and friendly with dogs but also cautious. She has no experience with children and her fearful nature is leading us to require that kids in the home be at least 15 years old. She may need a bit of training to help her overcome her fears and learn to trust more, but she is quick to warm up with a gentle approach. She is inexperience with leash walking and has had no opportunity to learn about house training. Her finders say that she knows the sit, stay, no, and down commands. She is affectionate, calm, and gentle. Adopting lovable Lovie means giving her the chance for a secure and loving home where she can truly flourish. (tw 12/9/2025)
