Zelie's past is a mystery, like so many dogs who find their way to rescue, but what we do know is that she's a gentle, loving girl with a heart ready to bloom. She can be a little shy at first, but once she feels safe, her sweet personality shines through. Zelie adores her person and will happily follow you everywhere - she might even step on the backs of your feet just to stay close! She would thrive in a calm, patient home that can help her continue building confidence, and she'd love a confident doggy friend to learn from. She is crate trained and often uses her crate when things get a bit too busy. Zelie is good with other dogs and is just now learning how to be a dog herself - playing, exploring, and enjoying the fun of having canine friends. She's also good with cats; she's curious but respectful and leaves them alone. Zelie is looking for a family who will continue to help her grow, gain confidence, and discover the joy of being a beloved dog. She's ready to find her forever.
