My personality

My story

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

About Karley

Approx. 5 years old | 77.6 lbs | Gentle, devoted companion

This sweet girl has had a series of loving homes due to human circumstances—not behavior issues. Her first owner adopted her as a young dog and adored her until he passed away. She was then taken in by his best friend, who later became seriously ill. During that time, she showed an extraordinary level of awareness—waking him at night when his oxygen equipment wasn’t working or when he needed assistance, despite having no training to do so.

Most recently, she moved again when a resident cat was unable to adjust to sharing the home. Each transition has been handled with care and love, and she has remained gentle and emotionally connected throughout.

🐾 Personality & Temperament

Exceptionally gentle and affectionate

Very people-oriented—she bonds deeply and wants to be near her person

Can feel anxious if separated, but not destructive

Calm and settles well indoors, sleeps through the night

Previously assessed by a trainer as easy to train and a possible therapy-dog candidate (assessment copy pending)

🧠 Training & Motivation

House-trained

Walks nicely on leash and is accustomed to regular grooming

Not food-motivated—she works for touch, praise, and affection

Responds well to guidance and human connection rather than treats

🏡 Lifestyle & Social Skills

Loves car rides, swimming, and toys

Good with children of all ages

Does well with both large and small dogs (with proper introductions)

No known aggression issues

🚧 Management Notes (Honest & Important)

She can clear a 4-foot fence if left unattended in a yard

Interestingly, she respects an invisible fence very well

Best suited for a home where she isn’t left alone outdoors and where companionship is valued

💗 Ideal Home

She will thrive with someone who:

Wants a true companion, not a backyard dog

Is home often or enjoys including their dog in daily life

Understands that closeness and reassurance—not treats—are what motivate her

Appreciates a calm, emotionally intuitive dog with a big heart
