Monie is a gentle, shy Labrador Retriever/Shepherd mix who’s about a year old and still learning the world. She needs patience and a bit of encouragement to come out of her shell, so a calm, understanding home would go a long way for her. Whether she's sitting close or quietly watching the day go by, Monie shows affection in her own subtle way. She does well with other dogs, cats, and children, so she's a good fit for a variety of homes ready to offer a little extra reassurance. Monie is spayed and up to date on her vaccinations. She’s currently fostered in Mississippi, but once adopted, she’ll travel up to the Vermont area via transport. For adopters who like astrology, being born April 1st makes Monie an Aries—so there's a bit of a firecracker under that shy surface. Please note, this rescue is unable to adopt to families in Massachusetts or Rhode Island. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
