This pet qualifies for our 7-day Foster-to-Adopt program. If you're interested in fostering to adopt, please reach out to meetme@arl-iowa.org.- Loves people and companionship - Tends to be an introvert around other dogs and may prefer one-on-one interactions or smaller groups of dog friends; may not be comfortable at dog parks or at large, dog-friendly events (dog intro recommended) - Shy pup who may need extra time to warm up to new people and things; will likely open up in a home environment with patience and time and may prefer a calm, quiet home- Needs a teens-and-up home right nowAll adoptable dogs and puppies are spayed/neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations (rabies and DA2PPV as appropriate for their age)The ARL's shelter software requires that we choose a primary breed for our dogs.

Story
- Shy pup who may need extra time to warm up to new people and things; will likely open up in a home environment with patience and time and may prefer a calm, quiet home- Once she feels comfortable she likes to stick close to her people - Knows sit and lay down - Recently went on a Dog's Day Out field trip and her human companion said she was very calm and sweet and walked great on a leash- Not a fan of loud noises, and may also be uncomfortable with bikes whizzing by when out on walks - Has been very uncomfortable around children while in our care, even kids who are a little bit older, so she is looking for a home with more mature family members- Can be socially awkward and unsure around other dogs and may be choosy about her dog friends (dog intro required) - We don't know her history with cats - May have allergies (more info at ARL) This pet qualifies for our 7-day Foster-to-Adopt program.
