✨ Meet Shirley! ✨ This enchanting soul is a Belgian Malinois mix, radiating energy and affection! Although her exact age is unknown, her spirit is timeless, and she’s just waiting for someone special to sweep her off her paws 🐾. Shirley came to our care with a chip; however, her previous owner didn’t bother to reclaim her for over a month, so now she’s legally ours and ready to be placed in a loving home. She has a charming blue spay mark on her belly, indicating she’s been spayed—look at her go! 🌟 About Shirley: Shirley is the epitome of a good time! Just imagine a ball of enthusiasm wrapped in a sweet, affectionate package. She absolutely thrives on play—fetch is her favorite game, and she’ll chase that ball like a champ, returning it with unrivaled enthusiasm 🎾✨. But don’t be fooled by her high-energy exterior! When it’s time to relax, she transforms into a cuddle bug, soaking up every ounce of affection you can give her. Shirley is curious and intelligent, eager to forge bonds and discover the world around her. Having a companion like Shirley means endless joy and laughter! ❤️ 🌼 What We Know: - Shirley is an energetic girl who adores interaction and loves playing. - A champion retriever, she’ll eagerly bring the ball right back to you! - When it’s downtime, she’s ready for sweet snuggles. - With a keen mind, she’s inquisitive and eager to form a connection. - She gets along famously with other dogs that match her size and energy. - While she hasn’t been around children, she’s always eager to learn and adapt! - Sadly, she hasn’t had many indoor opportunities because of our sensitive cats. - An experienced home that understands the Malinois breed would be ideal for her. 🏡 What She Needs: Shirley deserves a committed adopter who can shower her with the attention, activity, and structure she longs for. She’ll thrive in an environment where she has: - Space to run free and play until her heart’s content. - Training and guidance to hone her bright intellect. - Someone who understands the unique energy and intelligence of her breed. - A household without cats or, if possible, very careful introductions. - A family ready to nurture her into the remarkable companion she’s destined to become. 💛 Why She’s Looking for a Home: We absolutely adore Shirley, but with our current living situation and the needs of our cats, we can’t provide her with the indoor lifestyle and adventure she deserves. We believe she’s meant for greatness and a fulfilling life, and we want nothing but that for her! Oh, and just a little note: Shirley is kennel trained, which is a great start to finding her forever home.
