About Cami

Cami approaches new environments cautiously—she’s shy and reserved around people at first, but give her time and gentle reassurance, and she’ll slowly begin to trust. She’s happiest when in the company of other dogs and walks calmly on a leash. While she isn’t quick to interact with strangers, once you’re part of her circle, she reveals a warm, sweet side. Cami would thrive in a patient home where someone understands that building trust takes time. She’s house trained, cat-friendly, dog-friendly, and up to date on her vaccines. This lovely girl is looking for a peaceful space and someone willing to let her settle in at her own pace. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
