About Cora

Cora is thriving in her foster home and brings a lot of joy wherever she goes. She greets every day with a happy spirit and loves nothing more than gathering up all the toys for herself. Her energy easily outpaces the other dogs in the house, but she understands when it's time to tone it down and respects the boundaries of her canine roommates. Cora’s playfulness means she might need a little supervision around dogs who are more possessive of their toys, but she's never aggressive—just enthusiastic. She has also shown she gets along well with cats, making her a good fit for homes with multiple pets. Cora waits patiently at doors, signals when she needs to go outside, and hasn't had a single accident indoors. She settles well in her crate after some initial whining and sleeps through the night peacefully. This girl is loving, lively, and ready for a home that matches her pace and affection.
