MY RESCUE STORY
I was rescued from an abusive environment where I was used as a grooming practice dog. Instead of being loved as a companion, I was treated like a mannequin for people to practice haircuts on. Thankfully, those difficult days are now behind me. I was rescued by kind people who showed me the care and compassion I had always deserved. Now, I'm ready to leave my past behind and begin a new chapter filled with love, comfort, and happiness. All I'm missing is a forever family to call my own.

MY PERSONALITY
I can be a little shy when we first meet, but I warm up quickly with a little patience, kindness, and a few tasty treats. I have a big appetite, which makes me eager to learn and eager to please. I also love receiving attention from my people and thrive on affection. Because I enjoy being the center of attention, I can get a little jealous when other dogs are receiving all the cuddles, making me more of a people pup at heart.
MY SOCIAL SKILLS
· With People: I can be a little shy when we first meet, but I warm up quickly with a little patience, kindness, and a few tasty treats. Once I feel safe, my sweet and affectionate personality shines through. I love gentle pets and enjoy spending quiet time close to my favorite people. I'm comfortable being picked up with proper support and remain calm while being held. The volunteers and staff know I have so much love to give and believe that once I settle into my forever home, I'll blossom into a wonderfully loyal, affectionate companion.
· With Dogs: I generally get along best with dogs that are similar in size and have a compatible energy level, as I enjoy calm, respectful interactions.
· With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown. A cat test can be arranged to ensure the best fit!
ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY
I have a moderate energy level and enjoy spending time outdoors, whether it's exploring, sniffing around, or simply taking in all the interesting sights and smells. I'm happiest with leisurely walks where I can explore the world at my own pace. Once I've had my outdoor adventure, I'm more than happy to come home, curl up, and relax quietly by your side for the rest of the day.
TRAINING & HABITS
I'm continuing to improve my leash manners and may pull a little when something catches my interest, but I generally do a wonderful job following my handler's lead. I feel most comfortable walking in quieter areas, as loud or sudden noises can still surprise me. With gentle encouragement and positive experiences, my confidence continues to grow every day. I don't guard my food around people or other dogs, and I settle calmly in my kennel. While I don't currently show signs of separation anxiety, I do form close bonds with the people I love, so I may need a little time to adjust as we settle into a new routine together. For potty habits, I'm comfortable using both pee pads indoors and going potty outdoors, making me adaptable to different lifestyles.
MY IDEAL HOME
I’m searching for a patient, loving family who can help me become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with:
A family that will provide me with a safe haven – where I can decompress, be myself in a stable environment
A family that understands my past and is patient with me throughout
A family that enjoys indoor and outdoor time together
A family that will love and cherish me forever
A patient family who will let me build confidence at my own pace as I come out of my shell.
SPECIAL NOTES
I'm even smaller and cuter in real life. Photos and videos simply don't do me justice! I may be a little shy when we first meet, but I warm up quickly with a few tasty treats, kind words, and a little patience. Once I feel safe, my sweet and affectionate personality shines through, and I can't wait to show you just how loving I can be.
