About Twizzler Snickers

**Meet Twizzler Snickers**, a sweet young dog looking for a patient and caring adopter. Twizzler is part of a trio who came from a challenging background, having lived without human contact until recently. As a “special needs” dog, she requires someone knowledgeable about proper socialization techniques to help her come out of her shell. Though she’s made progress since arriving in March 2024, Twizzler still needs time and gentle encouragement to learn to trust. This petite girl is spayed and fully vaccinated, and she’s house-trained. Twizzler has a beautiful long coat and a lovely mix of black and golden hues. She gets along well with both dogs and cats, but she will need a home without young children. While she may seem shy, with the right person, Twizzler can thrive and develop into a loyal companion. Her adoption fee is $100, and although she doesn't have to be adopted with her sisters, it’s ideal if her new home is open to helping her learn and grow.
