My story

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

Meet **Ivy** 🌿

Ivy is a lively, loving girl with a big heart and an even bigger love for life. She’s an energetic pup who adores long walks—an hour stroll is right up her alley—and she still has plenty of playfulness left to share afterward. When it’s time to relax, Ivy is all about cuddles, belly rubs, and hopping up onto the couch or bed to be close to her people.

She enjoys car rides and likes to gaze out the window, taking everything in. Ivy is generally a quiet dog, though storms and loud outdoor noises can make her nervous; during those times she’ll seek comfort from her person or retreat to her crate, which she views as her cozy bedroom. She is housebroken with a solid schedule and will even tap you when she needs to go out. Ivy is crate trained and does best crated when home alone, as she can get curious with her surroundings.

Ivy loves toys of all kinds—balls, stuffed animals, squeaky toys, hard chews, and rope toys (tug-of-war is a favorite!). She does well with kids and other dogs, regularly attends doggy daycare, and while she may get excited when meeting new dogs or people, she’s easily redirected and settles nicely. She’s comfortable with grooming, knows **sit, stay, and down**, and is always thrilled to make new friends.

Ivy is a joyful, affectionate companion ready to bring energy, love, and fun into her future home. 💚
