Story
Disney is a little sweetheart with a big personality and plenty of love to give! This adorable girl is full of youthful energy and loves to play. She would thrive in an active home where she can enjoy walks, playtime, adventures, and all the fun that comes with being a young dog.
Disney gets along wonderfully with other dogs and cats, and having a friendly, confident canine companion in her new home would be a bonus. Disney is housebroken, crate trained, travels well in the car, and doesn't have a destructive streak. She's a pretty great little package!
Disney is initially shy and needs a little time to settle in and learn that she's safe and that her new people won't hurt her. Once she feels comfortable, her playful, lovely personality really shines. She is good with children, both younger and older, provided they have a gentle approach. Chasing, crowding or overwhelming her isn't the way to win her heart. Instead, children should be comfortable sitting quietly, giving her space and allowing her to approach when she's ready. Dog savvy children would be preferred.
Disney needs an adopter who understands that trust takes time and is happy to let her set the pace. A securely fenced yard would be lovely for playtime, although it's not essential. Whether in a house or apartment, Disney would thrive with someone who enjoys an active lifestyle, has a little patience, and appreciates that some of the sweetest bonds are built by simply giving a dog the time and space to choose you.
