Shelby, born on November 13, 2023, is a young hound mix with a striking red coat and gentle, soulful eyes. She's bright but naturally shy, especially with new people, and approaches life quietly. Her anxious temperament makes her cautious, but once she feels secure, her affectionate and loyal nature comes through. Shelby loves sleeping next to her foster and other dogs—friendly, calm canine company is a must for her. She needs a home with a solid, secure fence so she can play and relax safely with her dog friends. Loud homes or those with young children aren't her speed. Shelby is working on her leash skills and prefers to potty privately in her backyard. She is best matched with patient, gentle adopters who respect her pace and are committed to building trust slowly. When she’s ready, Shelby gives her heart fully for a lifetime. Did you know her birthday makes her a Scorpio? Scorpios are known for deep loyalty and sensitivity. Shelby is spayed and up to date on vaccinations. She’s housetrained and looking for a quiet, consistent environment to call her own. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
