Story
🐾
42 lbs of pure sweetness and just the right amount of clingy (the good kind). 💛
Shelby is about 2 years old and we’re guessing some kind of Schnauzer/terrier mix—but what she definitely is… is an absolute love bug. If you’ve ever wanted a living, breathing teddy bear that follows you around, congratulations—here she is.
She loves:
✨ Allllll the people
🦴 Benebones, Kongs, and anything snack-related
🎾 Playtime (with just the right off switch)
She’s good with:
✔️ People (seriously, all of them)
✔️ Other dogs
✔️ Public outings
She’s still working on:
Containing her excitement… because sometimes love = little jumps
Being okay when you’re doing something without her (rude, honestly)
Shelby is the kind of dog that just gets it. Mid-to-low energy, happy with a good walk, and then ready to be your shadow the rest of the day. She’s smart, eager to learn, and already picking up routines like a pro.
The basics:
Crate trained (and getting better every day—she’ll even go in on her own)
Potty trained (no accidents 🙌)
Leash trained (sticks close unless something loud says otherwise)
Car rides: a little nervous but improving quickly
Her vibe:
Soft, affectionate, easygoing… the kind of dog that just melts into you. She wants to be as close as physically possible at all times, and honestly, you won’t mind.
Perfect home:
Someone who wants a best friend. An active-ish home that will include her in life, love on her endlessly, and help her keep building confidence.
If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, slightly velcro companion… Shelby is your girl. 💕
