Pluto is a tender‑hearted young dog with a shy temperament. New people, new places, and sudden changes can feel overwhelming for her at first, but with patience and a calm approach, she slowly opens up and shows her sweet, loyal nature. Once she feels secure, she enjoys quiet companionship, gentle affection, and simple comforts like soft toys and treats. She's been around both men and women and does well. Having grown up with plenty of outdoor freedom, open space feels familiar and grounding to her.
Pluto hasn't had much formal training yet, but she's eager to learn at her own pace. She's not housetrained or crate trained and has lived a free‑roam outdoor lifestyle so far. She eats twice daily and settles into routines well once she understands what to expect. Earlier, Pluto was quilled by a porcupine and is recovering without complications she may have some permanent scarring .
Because she's been raised outdoors and has a naturally sensitive personality, Pluto will thrive in a home that offers gentle guidance, predictable routines, and a calm environment. She responds best to soft voices, slow movements, and positive reinforcement. She has no history of aggression, destructive behavior, or resource guarding  she's simply a shy soul looking for someone who will help her feel safe enough to shine.
