About Shakira

Current Location: Front Royal, VA Meet Shakira. This six month old, thirty five pound mixed breed beauty is the definition of happy. She is bright, affectionate, and full of life, with a joyful spirit that makes every day feel a little more fun. Shakira loves people. She greets everyone like a long lost friend, often popping up for a hug and covering you in kisses if you let her. She is incredibly affectionate and wants to be part of everything you are doing. Sit on the floor and you will instantly have a cuddle buddy who thinks your face needs a thorough cleaning. She is doing great learning the ropes of home life. She walks well on leash and enjoys getting out for hikes, walks, and new adventures. She rides nicely in the car, making her an easy companion for outings. She is picking up on routines quickly and already understands that gates and crates only open when she is calm and settled. Shakira has a playful, social side and loves other dogs. After a short adjustment, she bonded with her foster siblings and now spends her days running, wrestling, and happily stealing toys like they have always been best friends. She would likely love a home with another playful dog, but she can also entertain herself with toys when needed. She sleeps quietly through the night in her crate, even when other dogs are not crated, and settles nicely when it is time to rest. She enjoys being outside, exploring the yard, and getting involved in whatever project you are working on. Gardening, yard work, or just hanging out, she is all in. Shakira is still a puppy and can get excited, but she is smart and learning quickly. She appears to prefer going potty outside and has had no accidents overnight, though she is still adjusting after transport and a change in routine. This beautiful girl is up for anything. Play, adventure, cuddles, or quiet time. She brings enthusiasm, love, and a whole lot of personality. Someone is going to absolutely adore her, and she is ready to return that love ten times over.
