Story
Meet Syven
If you’re looking for a big-hearted girl with an even bigger personality, meet Syven! She is funny, quirky, energetic, affectionate, and always ready to be part of whatever is happening.
Syven is a total water girl! Give her a hose and watch her personality come alive. She thinks playing with water is the greatest thing ever and will happily entertain herself, and everyone watching, with her silly antics. She has a playful, fun-loving spirit that is impossible not to smile at.
Underneath all that energy is an incredibly sweet and happy girl. Syven absolutely loves people and is happiest when she is with her humans. She especially loves children, although because of her size and exuberance, older children would be the best fit. She wants to be involved in family life and would much rather hang out with her people than worry about what everyone else is doing.
Syven came to our rescue with a painful dislocated elbow, which she has had for some time. What has amazed everyone is how she has simply kept going without complaint. She has learned to live with her discomfort and continues to be happy, playful, and eager to enjoy life. She will be having surgery to address her injury, and we are looking forward to helping her feel her very best.
She is also doing wonderfully with her training. Syven is smart, eager to please, crate trained, potty trained, and continuing to work on her manners and obedience. She is receiving professional training with Primal Canine and will have lifetime training support available if needed. Her goal isn't just to learn commands, but to have the tools she needs to successfully navigate life with her family.
Syven is much more interested in her humans than other dogs. She may be able to live with the right canine companion, but introductions will need to be thoughtful and appropriate. Because she has a high prey drive, we do not recommend a home with cats or other small animals.
Syven is sweet, happy, resilient, wonderfully quirky, and full of life. She has been through some difficult things, but she hasn't let them change her outlook. She is ready to keep learning, keep playing, chase that garden hose, and finally have the family she deserves.
