All About Me

My Personality
Hi, I’m Koala. One day, a mama dog and her 3 pups were rescued and transferred to a city shelter. One of the pup is actually me! The city shelter could not keep us any longer, so we were in danger to be euthanized. A warm-hearted rescuer heard this news, and they saved my family. My mom and my siblings have found their forever home, and I feel like this is my turn. I am fully ready to meet my forever home!
I do love quiet places and calm hearts. With time and training, I’ve learned how to trust, to walk on a leash, to take treats from gentle hands, and even to show my belly when I’m feeling safe. I’m still a naturally reserved girl, but I’m no longer frozen by fear. Now, I move slowly, quietly always observing, always feeling.
I may not run to greet you right away, but give me a few days and you’ll see a whole new side of me, sweet, loyal, even a little silly. I’m not the kind of dog who demands attention. I’m the kind who will sit beside you in stillness and stay by your side, always.
Social Skills
-With People: I’m cautious around new people but warm up with patience. Once we bond, I’ll trust you deeply. I’m more comfortable around adults and would do best in a calm, quiet home without young children.
- With Other Dogs: I get along well with dogs my size and tend to avoid conflict. If things get tense, I’ll simply walk away or roll over to show I mean no harm. I’m a peace-seeker.
- With Cats: I’ve stayed in a foster home with a cat before for about 10 days, and I did just fine. With a slow introduction, I could likely live with feline friends again.
On My Walks
I love being outside and walking with someone I trust, but I’m still learning to feel fully confident on a leash. Sudden noises or unfamiliar things can make me freeze, so I’ll need someone who moves at my pace and helps me keep feeling safe. A calm walking buddy, human or canine, would be perfect for me.
Life at Home
I’m a quiet presence at home rarely bark, don’t guard my food, and am clean in my habits. I prefer to go potty outside, and take my time getting comfortable in new spaces. Car rides are still scary for me, and I usually need to be carried in, but once inside, I settle down.
My energy level is low, and I’m happiest just relaxing with the people I trust. I’m still working on confidence, but I’ve already made incredible progress and I’ll keep growing with the right support.
My Ideal Home
I’m looking for someone who sees me not just the quiet dog in the corner, but the sensitive, soulful companion waiting patiently to bloom. I need a home that understands shy dogs and gives us space to thrive.
I’m looking for:
- A calm, patient home (adult-only or with older kids)
- Someone who understands the slow magic of earning a shy dog’s trust
- A soft place to land after years of waiting
I’m not difficult, but I need just a little extra care to become my best self. If you’ve got room in your heart for a quiet, loving dog who will never take you for granted, I just might be your Koala.
