About Libby

Libby brings energy and kindness everywhere she goes. She’s happiest when sprinting after a ball, and if you indulge her, she’d play all day long. After narrowly escaping euthanasia simply for treatable mange (now fully recovered), she’s eager to start her real life—healthy, spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, and housebroken. No one can quite pin down her breed, but her look is striking and her spirit is even brighter. At about 2 years old and weighing around 65 lbs, Libby does great with dogs, cats, and kids. She shines with active families who like to hike and explore, and she really needs a secure fenced yard. She’ll clear a 4-foot fence and can climb a 6-foot chain link, so outdoor time must be safely contained. With some dedicated training, Libby could be an excellent agility partner or adventurous companion. If you want a loyal, unique, and loving dog, Libby will fit right in—and, as a bonus, she’s a Pisces, so you can expect a little extra sensitivity and intuition from her.
