Story
Meet Khalessi!Khalessi is a sweet girl looking for a patient and understanding home that will give her the time she needs to feel safe and comfortable. She can be shy in new situations and will take time to warm up to a new family, so her future adopters should be prepared for a slow adjustment period. Khalessi would do best in a semi-quiet home without young children, as she prefers a calmer environment where her boundaries will be respected. She thrives with people who understand that trust takes time and who are willing to let her settle in at her own pace without pressure.She has previously lived with another dog and did well, and she may even benefit from having a confident canine companion in the home to help show her the ropes and build her confidence.With patience, routine, and understanding, Khalessi has the potential to blossom into a loyal and loving companion for the right family.

Story
This dog is up to date on vaccinations and is spayed or neutered. (Please note: Puppies under 3 months old may not be sterilized prior to adoption. If this is the case, your adoption coordinator will provide guidance on the process.)   To adopt or learn more about this dog, you must complete an adoption application, which can be found on our website: www.sandypawsrescue.com.   PLEASE READ:     •    If a dog or puppy is listed, they are currently available for adoption. However, they may already be pending an adoption, and their profile may not yet reflect this.     •    All information is accurate to the best of our knowledge as of the posting date.     •    Unless explicitly stated, Sandy Paws Rescue does not guarantee the breed of any dog. Breeds listed are educated guesses made by shelter staff, volunteers, or veterinarians. Many of our dogs are mixed breeds, often with pit bull-type genetics, resulting in a wide variety of physical traits and temperaments.   Our dogs come from various situations, such as kill shelters, owner surrenders, or as strays. It is likely both parents were mixed breeds as well.   Sandy Paws Rescue does not have a public shelter in Massachusetts. Our dogs reside in private foster homes or boarding kennels in the South until adopted. Many dogs are spoken for prior to transport or release from state-mandated isolation.   For information on adoption fees, procedures, or FAQs, visit our website: www.sandypawsrescue.com.   The FIRST step in adopting from Sandy Paws Rescue is to submit a completed adoption application.   ##2720001##
