Annie is looking for a home where patience and understanding come first. She arrives timid and distant with strangers and prefers a steady approach when building trust. Annie feels her best when she is with her person and doesn't want to be left alone for long, though she manages on her own as needed. Around other dogs, Annie thrives if introductions are slow and respectful since she tends to be dominant, and she does well with canine companions who help channel her energy. A quiet, no-child home is non-negotiable since Annie gets easily overstimulated by social situations and does not do well around kids. Once Annie bonds, she is loyal and seeks comfort and reassurance from her person—and she will hand out constant kisses to show it. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
