Click apply and let the tail-wagging begin! Appelonia "Apple" is a very sweet girl who has shown a big heart despite her tough start in life. She came from a hoarding situation and genuinely enjoys the company of other dogs in open spaces, but she isn't comfortable sharing a close, indoor environment with them, so she will do best as the only dog in your home. Her fosters rave about how wonderful she is—she's easy on walks, respectful of furniture, and is house trained. Building trust with the crate is an ongoing process, and she's getting braver every day, especially with supportive humans by her side. While Apple can be a bit anxious and startled by loud noises, she's making progress with the help of a dog counselor and the encouragement of her fosters. She needs an adopter who can provide confidence and a sense of security, along with opportunities for positive experiences around dog friends through playdates or shared walks. Apple is also being supported with medication to help manage an occasional health issue involving sporadic leaking, which is monitored by her veterinary team. This loving girl is ready to find a gentle, committed home that will encourage her ongoing growth and celebrate all the love she has to offer. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
