About Isabelle

Isabelle is a sweet senior who truly deserves a fresh start. After her owner passed away, she found herself in a high-kill shelter where her chances of adoption were slim. Thankfully, she is now heartworm negative, fully vetted, and housebroken, making her an ideal companion. This spayed American Staffordshire Terrier is estimated to be around 9 years old but behaves like a much younger pup. Isabelle has a cheerful demeanor and is well-behaved, showing off her training with commands like sit, stay, and come. Her favorite pastime? Rolling around in the grass first thing in the morning, soaking in the sun. While she enjoys the company of other dogs, she prefers to avoid bossy personalities and would thrive as the only pet, showering her human with all the affection they can handle. Isabelle longs for a home where she can snuggle on the couch and get belly rubs. She waits patiently outside her foster's bedroom when the door is closed, showcasing her loyal and gentle nature. If you can offer this loving girl the second chance she deserves, apply to adopt her today.
