About Paisley

Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started. Paisley is a sweet 4-year-old Cur and Labrador Retriever mix with a beautiful red-chestnut short coat who weighs about 45 pounds. She is fully crate trained and housebroken, making her a breeze to settle in at home. Paisley adores people, relishing time on the couch for cozy evenings watching your favorite shows. She has a playful streak—de-stuffing toys and enjoying cow hooves as her go-to chew. Paisley has been in rescue since summer 2022 and is looking for her perfect match. She does have a tendency to resource guard her food and toys from other dogs, but never from people, which is why her ideal home is one where she is the only pet. She does well with other dogs as long as food and toys are not part of the mix. Paisley thrives in a family that goes for walks and cherishes time outdoors, so a fenced backyard is a must for her to get the exercise and safe play she needs. Dog parks are not the best choice for her due to her possessiveness with toys and balls that may be left around. Paisley was born under the sign of Scorpio, meaning she likely brings passion, loyalty, and a spirited heart to your family. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
